Bachelor of Science in Power Engineering

Course Details

Objectives: The graduate of Power Engineering programme receives a profound education in the area of thermal engineering, electric power engineering, information technologies, and economics. This education provides knowledge and skills that are required for sustainable development, ecological production, transmission, and distribution of electricity. He/she is prepared for creative work concerned with the design, commissioning, and operation of power systems, as well as energy production, conversion, transmission and distribution.

Sample modules/Keywords:

During the first year the effort is focused on mathematics, physics, mechanics, thermodynamics and computer science. The students learn also electric circuits, foreign language and non-technical subject (mostly economy). The core subjects for the second year are fundamentals of mechanical design, control engineering and foreign language. The students of power engineering learn advanced thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, heat transfer theory of heat machines, electric machines, electronics, fundamentals of combustion processes and fuels, theory of flow machines, electric power systems. The third year is again more specialized. In the third year of Power Engineering students learn thermal power systems, energy sources and energy conversion, technologies of environmental protection, re-newable energy systems, control of heat processes, they also learn about turbines, pumps, steam boilers, reciprocating engines and heat pumps. The last half of the year in 3.5 years program is devoted to the supervised work on engineering diploma thesis.

The objectives of the study is to create the solid fundamental engineering knowledge during the first year of the study, then learn deeply the problems devoted to the subject of the study. The graduates are prepared to work in industry and to solve engineering problems. At first the aforementioned abilities should be proved in the diploma thesis where a given problem must be solved and the work must be documented and explained. Each diploma thesis is reviewed by 2 reviewers and is defended in the presence of commission consisting of professors and assistant professors.

Intended for: Students

Duration and terms: 7 semesters
