Electrical Engineering's world
Why choosing Electrical Engineering?
Every single minute of our life depends on electricity.
This M.Sc programme is designed to prepare future engineers to face the modern
global challenges related to sustainability, climate change and mitigation of the
impact that our life style has on the environment.
Nowadays, societal and industrial growth is largely based on the availability of
energy in a form that can be readily transformed into light, heat, movement,
electromagnetic waves for data transmission and remote processing,
electrochemical activity. Electric energy represents the most efficient way to
convert energy from primary energy sources and transport it to distant places. Its
features make electricity unique for many activities in everyday life, ranging from
household, industrial or service applications.
Electric energy is clean, easy to control and environment-friendly. In our
country, more than one-third of the consumed energy is converted into electric
energy before its end use. Electric energy is a precious good that should not be
wasted. To attain this goal, all related conversions, from initial production to end
use, must be optimized.
Electric Energy yields immediate integration of renewables within the whole energy
system. This integration represents a crucial challenge toward mitigating the
impact of fossil fuels and grants sustainable energy production for future
generations.
Presently, the electric energy field is undergoing significant changes that will make
the future role of the electrical engineer more and more important as a key player
in managing energy and protecting the environment.
Electricity is the “coolest” and most up-to-date way to exploit energy! Thanks to
. Internet of Things (the set of technologies that allows us to be always connected
and share our data), telecommunication and control systems, and artificial
intelligence, it brings to life all applications that improve our life, our homes and
our work nowadays: Smart Grids, Smart Cities, Industry 4.0, E-vehicles, Home
automation, ...
How is the Degree Course structured?
Politecnico di Milano offers three different M.Sc tracks in Electrical
Engineering, characterized by cross-disciplinary skills and covering a large
number of different application areas.
Students enrolled in the M.Sc. Programme will gain expertise in the technical areas
of electric power systems, renewable energy sources, smart grid technologies,
smart transportation systems, E-vehicles, the design of electrical machines and
drives, power electronics, and industrial automation.
• The track in Electrical Engineering is aimed at forming highly-qualified
professionals with the required skills to solve complex design problems and
foster technological innovation in the typical fields of Electrical Engineering. This
requires a solid background on the theoretical and scientific foundations of the
Electrical Engineering, as well as on the most advanced methods of operating
the electric systems and equipment.
• The track in Smart Grids provides an answer to the need of exploiting
renewable energy sources, such as sun and wind, by means of distributed
generation that complement the traditional high-power hydro-electric and
thermoelectric generation. This need implies a new way of designing and
operating the future intelligent electric distribution grid thanks to the application
of ICT techniques (this track is supported by Enel S.p.A.)
• The track in Mobility Engineering explores electric issues associated with
transportation systems. The areas focus mainly on railway systems (including
High Speed - High Capacity systems), underground networks (including
automatic systems), mass overground urban transport systems (tramlines,
trolleybuses, and light rail), independent transport systems (electric and hybrid
vehicles) and electric systems onboard ships and airplanes. Both the
. infrastructural and energy aspects are considered in relation to supply systems
together with electromechanical aspects of converting electricity for traction (this
track is supported the Italian Railways Group – Ferrovie dello Stato Italiane and
is a one-year track developed after the first year of the ELECTRICAL
ENGINEERING track)
We strongly believe that international exchanges can enrich the CV and complete
the personal growth of our students: starting from this assumption we have
established many exchange projects and double degree programs with the most
prestigious European and non-European universities.
Further information and details on the aforementioned double-degree programmes
are available on the webpage "Study Abroad" of the website of the Electrical
Engineering M.Sc Programme .

How the study program is organized?
What is the learning context?
Electric engineering graduates are expert in the field of electric energy and have
cross-disciplinary skills that help them facing the increasingly demanding
challenges of both the research and professional world.
During their studies, electrical engineers learn team working and how to behave
ethically and transfer their knowledge.
The M.Sc programme in Electrical Engineering offers one of the best
instructor/student ratio at Politecnico di Milano. This condition helps classroom
interaction and application of innovative teaching, thus allowing our students to
take active part in experimental laboratories and challenging projects.
What are the professional outlets?
Once graduated, students may find their jobs in the following areas:
• manufacturers of electrical equipment, machines and power electronic systems;
• industrial automation and robotics;
• electricity production and transportation;
• companies active in the field of electric mobility;
• companies active in automatic production and management of goods and services;
• companies and consortia active in the electricity market;
• regulatory bodies active in the electricity field (national and international bodies);
Free profession after State Exam and registration in Section A of the Professional
Register of the Order of Engineers of the province of residence. Graduates may also
become registered engineers, according to the rules enforced by the different
countries.
Joining the Electrical Engineering M.Sc programme is a forward-looking
investment for the future!
Each graduate receives an average of 25 job offers.
91% of graduates have a stable job already 6 months after graduation.
