Liverpool John Moores University

About this course Gain IET accreditation on LJMU's Electrical Power and Control Engineering MSc. Study at one the UKs leading Engineering Schools Follow a programme informed by internationally-acclaimed research from LJMUs Electrical and Electronic Engineering Research Centre Look forward to career success with major UK and international employers Meet Chartered Engineer requirements This programme is available as a standard full-time Masters one-year programme (180 credits) or as an extended full-time Masters 20 month programme (240 credits). On both versions in semesters one and two you will study full-time at LJMU completing the taught modules. If you are on the one-year programme, you will complete your Dissertation over the summer. If you are on the 20 month programme, you will undertake the Group Design Project and your Dissertation in the second year. This MSc includes the IET accreditation you need to boost your future employment opportunities. It can even be completed part-time to enable you to study as you remain in employment. Industry-based research is a key element of the programme, keeping you up-to-date with the latest innovation and preparing you for employment in the sector or further research and PhD study. Growing demand for electrical power engineers in the energy, automotive, and process industries means that, as a graduate, you could be involved in the design and development of electrical systems, such as those found in hybrid vehicles, cooling systems and aircraft actuators. You may also be working on the generation, distribution, regulation and conversion of electrical power. During your studies you'll develop advanced analytical and experimental skills to design new power and control systems and learn how to critically analyse designs, their functionality and expected reliability. You will also gain a strong understanding of the capabilities and limitations of modelling and simulation tools.
