Bachelor of Engineering – Power Systems Engineering

The Power Systems Engineering (PSE) program is a four-year Bachelor’s degree designed to meet the demand for engineers in the rapidly evolving electrical power sector. This program provides a study of electrical power engineering, trans-disciplinary engineering of renewable energy generation, and smart-grid and energy conservation technologies. The program provides a solid foundation in mathematics, science, and engineering theory, and gradually builds practical and engineering design skills as well as a full spectrum of employability skills through its project-based learning approach and paid cooperative education.

What You’ll Learn

• Solve engineering problems related to electric power systems by applying advanced principles of mathematics, natural sciences, and engineering.
• Identify, formulate, analyze, and solve complex engineering problems in electric power systems to reach substantiated conclusions.
• Develop specifications based on determined requirements for electric power systems.
• Investigate power system problems using appropriate methods that include research, practical experimentation, simulations, engineering analysis, and information synthesis to reach valid conclusions.
• Evaluate, verify, and validate electric power engineering systems against specifications and requirements.
• Design new solutions in the field of power systems engineering using appropriate engineering design methods and processes, considering health and safety risks, applicable standards, and economic, environmental, cultural, and societal aspects, to meet stakeholder requirements.
• Create, select, adapt, and extend appropriate techniques, resources, and modern engineering tools for analysis, design, development, and evaluation of electric power systems, and effectively apply them to solve power systems engineering problems.
