电气工程哲学博士-能源与电力

来自电力系统和电力电子学的教师专业知识经常被结合到研究活动中。电力系统研究在电力系统的分析，可靠性，监视，控制和保护领域进行。一些教师对控制系统，数字信号处理，数据通信和智能系统应用也有浓厚兴趣。电力电子学的研究领域包括电动机驱动器，电力电子转换器，实用程序接口问题，有源滤波器以及电动和混合动力汽车。一些教师对电能质量和电机诊断也有浓厚的兴趣。
Faculty expertise from both power systems and power electronics is frequently combined in research activities. Power systems research is performed in the areas of analysis, reliability, monitoring, control and protection of power systems. Some of the faculty also have a strong interest in control systems, digital signal processing, data communications, and intelligent system applications. Power electronics research is performed in the areas of motor drives, power electronic converters, utility interface issues, active filters and electric and hybrid vehicles. Some of the faculty also have a strong interest in power quality and diagnostics of electrical machines.<br>Work leading to the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) is designed to give the candidate a thorough and comprehensive knowledge of his or her professional field and training in methods of research. The final basis for granting the degree shall be the candidate's grasp of the subject matter of a broad field of study and a demonstrated ability to do independent research. In addition, the candidate must have acquired the ability to express thoughts clearly and forcefully in both oral and written languages. The degree is not granted solely for the completion of coursework, residence and technical requirements, although these must be met.
