Overview
Electrical engineering is for you if you are not afraid of challenges, you are interested in how things work and you look forward to being part of the energy transition. Interest in the natural sciences is also an important feature: in electrical engineering, you apply mathematics and physics to explore different phenomena. As an expert in electrical engineering, you will have a great opportunity to contribute to the technological revolution and an electronic future.
After completing the Bachelor's degree in electrical engineering, you will have a direct study right to continue your studies in the Master's Programme in Electrical Engineering at LUT.
Career prospects
Emerging energy systems, energy-efficient technology, smart grids, electrifying transport and the electricity market guarantee graduates of electrical engineering work now and in the future.
New experts are needed for product development, project engineering, sales and marketing, and management positions. Your job responsibilities may include, for example, the design, product development, technical sales or production management of electrotechnical equipment and its production.
There is also a growing need in the market for electrical trading engineers and electrical work managers.
