Overview

Society depends on electricity. Cars, trains and ships are electrified, and consumers can produce electricity themselves. We expect electricity when we need electricity. This creates new challenges for the power system. The entire electrical infrastructure must be further developed and maintained for efficient and reliable energy supply.

You will learn to develop innovative solutions for the sustainable power system of the future and design electrotechnical equipment for industry, energy supply, ships and railways.

What can you become after the Electric Power Engineering program at Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU)?

In Norway and the world, there is a great demand for electric power engineers in energy companies, industry, consulting engineers and oil and gas operations

Citizens from EU countries can apply for jobs in Norway. Non-EU citizens must obtain a work permit to apply for a job in Norway.

After a master's degree, you may be eligible for a doctoral degree (ph.d.).
