The program is an interdisciplinary program that covers the energy studies from electrical and mechanical points of view. It aims to study both conventional energy and renewable sources energy. Energy’s flows, constraints, generation, transmission, distribution, consumption, and management knowledge are acquired through the period of study. Students are provided with a deep knowledge of conventional and renewable energy technologies generation and applications. Thermal power plants, machine construction, design, and stability are topics covered. Hydro, tidal, wave, wind, solar photovoltaic, solar thermal, concentrated solar power, biomass, geothermal and others are studied. Renewable energy applications are illustrated and evaluated both theoretically and economically. Power system networks (transmission and distribution) control and Modeling are explained. Energy management is discussed in detail using demand side management, energy efficiency, and energy consumption and audit are explained in detail. Finally, the program encourages problem identification and solving as well as critical thinking skills. All topics under study prepare the program graduates for the national, regional and international energy job market.
