تفاصيل الدورة

The academic faculties in the Department of Electrical Engineering possess a high level of academic qualifications spanning the most important modern areas in Electrical Engineering. In addition to undertaking active scientific research, the faculties are continuing to investigate significant issues faced by the engineering industry in the country in both public and private sectors (e.g. Telecommunications, Systems, Gas Processing, Biomedical Engineering and Energy). This on-going activity has resulted in a strong partnership between the Department and the industry. Qatar National Vision 2030 commits the country and its institutions to a number of targets in order to ensure the readiness of the industrial sectors for the challenges of sustainable economic and social development. Consequently, Qatar will witness further significant growth in all sectors related to electrical engineering, including, but not limited to, power systems, industrial control systems, medical electronics and instrumentation and telecommunication industries. Such developments need to be accompanied by an unprecedented need for applied research activities that address the new challenges through, for example, developing advanced biomedical systems, improving telecommunications infrastructure, improving energy efficiency, establishing renewable energy projects, and building smart systems for industrial control and power generation. The Master of Science in Electrical Engineering comes at an appropriate time to foster the skills and approaches necessary for addressing the ever-increasing aforementioned challenges.

The mission of the Master of Science in Electrical Engineering program in the College of Engineering is to prepare students for careers in private and public sectors and for advanced level in research that leads to high scholarly achievements, and advanced knowledge. The major emphasis of the program is to foster a deeper understanding of the engineering research process and learn the professional skills.

The structure of the Master of Science in Electrical Engineering program is unique, as it helps the engineers become more effective technical specialists, and strengthens their ability to lead people and projects. Conducting original research is an important goal of a Master program study
