Førsteamanuensis / Studieprogramleiar for Master Elektroteknikk
Full-time or part-time study
You can complete the master's program as a full-time student over 2 years or part-time over 3 or 4 years. Part time is not available for Non-EU/EEA applicants. For those who are working in parallel to studying, we recommend that the part-time study be carried out in collaboration with your company to allocate enough time for you to complete the studies. There is an opportunity to propose a master's thesis in collaboration with your company, providing mutual benefits. For more information, see the latest version of the study plan under "Study plan" on the program's main page.
The master’s program covers essential and advanced skills within
electric energy conversion, electric drives, control methods and
power systems for electrical engineers working with the
technology for the future. These technologies are critical for the
electrification and digitalisation of our society, an important
element towards a sustainable future. Important applications are
renewable energy generation, energy storage, energy distribution,
and electric transport including electric vehicles, ships, and
aircrafts.
Advanced skills are supported by fundamental knowledge given
within electromagnetism, power electronics, programming, power
systems, control engineering, measurement system, signal
transmission and mathematics.
In the third semester, the student can choose to specialise by their choice of electric
courses, or exchange to another institution provided that external
courses are similar in content and scope to those specified in this
program description.
See additional information and an overview of mandatory tasks in
the individual course descriptions.
The Master in Electrical Engineering is founded on the "conditions

With a Master in Electrical Engineering, you can work in development, construction, research, environmental surveillance, data technology, electrical supply and instrumentation. Employers are often in the supplier industry, power sector and maritime sector, although the education is relevant for most uses of electricity.
With a growing focus on the development of sustainable and renewable energy production, electric energy will play a key role in many new energy-intensive areas of our society. We see it in transport, on land, sea and in the air as an exciting development area. The electrical engineer will play a central role in the renewable energy community of the future.
Admission requirements:

All teaching on this program takes place in English.
Most courses are based on lectures, self-study and assignments
or small projects, individually or in groups. Each 5 ECTS course
usually includes 40 lectures, plus supervision time. The handouts
can be voluntary or mandatory. Mandatory lab exercises are
included in some topics. Scientific theory, application and analysis
is emphasized in assignments and projects. The individual course
descriptions provide additional information.
The study offers a learning foundation where digital tools and
online support resources are widely used. Learning resources of
each subject are available in an LMS (Learning Management
System). Most of the subject information is gathered there, such
as lecture notes, assignments, tests, links, deadlines, etc., and it
is also a platform for the main communication with lecturers and
fellow students.
Teaching can take place in different ways depending on the topic.
Traditional lecture model is primarily used, while some courses
has implemented projects, "flipped classroom" and other types of
active teaching methods.
In a traditional lecture model, teachers will lecture in scheduled
hours. However, a part of the scheduled hours will be hours of
self-study, where students can work with lab assignments, tasks
that are included in work requirements or tasks that are part of an
assessment. The lecturer and any scientific assistants will be
available.
English
The program qualifies students to take a PhD, and UiT campus Narvik can offer such an education through the PhD Programme in Engineering Sciences. PhD at the Department of Electrical Engineering will be affiliated with the research group Electromechanical Systems.
It is possible to study parts of the master’s program at another university. An individual plan must in this case be made in accordance with the academic program leader.
