Course delivery details
Our graduate certificates take six months to complete. We deliver our online graduate certificates on a part-time intensive basis. Part-time Students are expected to spend approximately 10-15 hours per week per unit learning the program material and completing assessments. This includes attending tutorials.
A key area of electrical engineering is power system analysis and design. The Graduate Certificate in Power System Analysis and Design covers knowledge and skills to analyze power systems both under steady state and dynamic conditions. It will also cover in-depth principles involving power system protection and power quality analysis covering the applicable international standards. Aspects relating to system stability, including transient stability, small signal stability, frequency, and voltage stability as well as measures to enhance system stability as a result of renewable systems integration will also be discussed.
The learning outcomes of the course are designed to equip students with professional engineering skills and knowledge to model solutions to address power quality problems, simulate various system conditions using industry-based software and undertake design principles for effective substation and protection systems.
