Objectives of Programme's Learning Outcomes

  • Mobilise a structured set of scientific knowledge and skills and specialised techniques in order to carry out electrical engineering missions, using their expertise and adaptability.
    • Master and appropriately mobilise knowledge, models, methods and techniques specific to electrical engineering.
  • Plan, manage and lead projects in view of their objectives, resources and constraints, ensuring the quality of activities and deliverables.
    • Respect deadlines and timescales
  • Communicate and exchange information in a structured way - orally, graphically and in writing, in French and in one or more other languages - scientifically, culturally, technically and interpersonally, by adapting to the intended purpose and the relevant public.
    • Argue to and persuade collaborators, clients, teachers and boards, both orally and in writing.
    • Use and produce high-quality scientific and technical papers (reports, plans, specifications, etc.), adapted particularly to the intended purpose and the relevant public.
  • Adopt a professional and responsible approach, showing an open and critical mind in an independent professional development process.
    • Exploit the different means available in order to inform and train independently.
  • Contribute by researching the innovative solution of a problem in engineering sciences.
    • Design and implement technical analysis, experimental studies and numerical modelling to address a given problem.

Learning Outcomes of UE

Demonstrate expertise and versatility in the sciences and technology •Formulate and analyse complex problems •Adopt an applied scientific approach •Innovate •Implement solutions •Plan and carry out projects in engineering •Master scientific and technical communication •Be a critical, reflexive and independent professional •Be a responsible person, in step with the stakes of society. And, more specifically, understand power systems in the transient state; calculate short-circuit currents in symmetrical and non symmetrical faults; understand switching transients and overvoltage phenomena in power systems.

Content of UE

elementary transients in power systems: lumped and distributed circuits; balanced faults ; symmetrical components ; unbalanced faults ; power quality ; switching transients in circuit breakers ; overvoltages and insulation coordination.

Prior Experience

Balanced three-phase circuits, transformer modelling, synchronous machines basic principles.
