Program Introduction

The Electrical Engineering Department at National Sun Yat-sen University provides students the capabilities to achieve rewarding careers in designing new products, conducting advanced research, and teaching at all levels of schools. The department has consistently ranked among five of the best EE programs in the nation, and offers all-level (bachelor, master, and Ph.D.) degrees in electrical engineering. With its overall best-averaged academic/research performance among all national research-intensive universities in Taiwan, the electric power related major in the EE department has attained international recognitions and competitions among the related professional societies. The objectives of launching the International Master’s Program in Electric Power Engineering (IMEPE) are:

• Assisting international students in developing advanced electric power engineering capacities
• Promoting professional exchanges among international experts in electric power engineering
• Enhancing the electric power engineering design and analytical capabilities of diplomatic allies

Based on their academic/professional backgrounds and research interests, the students enrolled in the IMEPE program can choose the following subjects as their research specialties during the study period:

Students have to complete a total of 24-credit course work (at least 12 must be received from the core courses), and a Master’s thesis in the field of electric power engineering for graduation. Students are required to submit and defend his/her thesis to a panel of 3-5 committee members. The topic of the thesis should be related to his/her research specialties and meet the industrial development needs of the student’s country.

Master of Science

The students will earn the “Master of Science (major in Electric Power Engineering)” degree from the Electrical Engineering Department after the full completion.
