List of Disciplines

Electrical Engineering pioneered Energy and Power Engineering to improve sustainable development. This field of study is concerned with the use of natural resources to generate energy and distribute power efficiently. This energy and power distribution involves the use of fossil fuels or petroleum, as well as solar and wave power, wind power, nuclear power, and hydroelectricity. Energy and Power Engineering teaches students how to convert power from one form to another. It is related to the basic principles of electromechanical or electrochemical processes. Students learn how to create, maintain, and develop huge power grid networks in this discipline. The degree programme often mixes science and engineering, with students receiving both theoretical lectures and practical practise in the lab.

Engineers with a degree in Energy and Power Engineering work in the power utility sector. Energy and power engineers design and organise the components of generation, transmission, and distribution. They use motors, batteries, and capacitors to emit and radiate power. These devices are necessary in the assessment and stability of power networks. In order to stabilise energy and electricity, they try to maximise renewable energy and environmentally friendly power systems. Energy and power engineers build massive systems using innovative methodologies, technologies, and integrated systems that are functionally reliable.
