The growing number of computer systems in industry means that the new generation of well-qualified professionals is required to implement, exploit emerging computer-based technologies and make full use of the latest technologies in power and electrical engineering. For the last decade the challenge for electrical and electronic systems engineers is to integrate smart devices into more efficient systems. The study programme is structured to deliver competencies, knowledge and skills required for computerized control of electrical technologies. The power and electrical engineering industry in Latvia is developing - it creates globally competitive products and significantly contributes to the implementation of relevant research projects. The demand for electrical engineers in the labour market of Latvia and other countries is huge and graduates have very good career prospects.
The main aim of the bachelor study programme is to provide basics of electrical engineering in the field of computerized control of electrical technologies, to prepare students for further engineering or master studies and to give an insight into practical application of acquired knowledge. The Programme aims to produce graduates who are highly literate in different aspects of computerized control of electrical technologies.
Throughout the study programme, you will be taught how electricity functions and how electronics are applied in industrial equipment. You will develop a basic understanding of electrical principles, which help you be considered as a well-educated professional in the field of electrical engineering. The study programme consists of compulsory, limited choice, free choice subjects, as well as humanities/social subjects and languages. The program provides general subjects, like mathematics, physics, computing, mechanics and chemistry. Other aspects of the programme include the advanced use of computer applications such as MathCAD, MATLAB, SolidWorks Premium, SolidCAM and ANSYS, among others. You Faculty of Power and Electrical Engineering Bachelor´s Programme in Computerized Control of Electrical Technologies also develop techniques in computer aided analysis and approaches in simulation. There different scientific equipment of working place for designer of electric equipment (Tractebel Engineering); complicated relay protection and automation testing device with computer FREJA with software (without computer this device is invalid) (OMICRON); power analyzer, merger, voltage tester (EDDI); programming environment OPC ToolKit for Windows etc., used at the faculty. In the study programme there are around 42% of subjects in electrical engineering and electronics, which aim to produce graduates who are highly literate in the field of studying and who are ready to exploit emerging computer-based technologies. Some of the compulsory and specialized subjects of the curriculum are as follows*:
