MEng in Electrical (Power Electronics and Drives), BITS Pilani Dubai Campus

The M.Eng Electrical (Power Electronics and Drives) at BITS Pilani Dubai Campus is a 2‑year, full‑time, KHDA‑approved postgraduate program that focuses on advanced power electronics, electric machines, and drives for applications such as EVs, renewables, industrial automation, and modern power systems. The curriculum typically includes core courses on power electronic converters and semiconductor devices, electrical machines and adjustable‑speed drives, relevant control and instrumentation, and system simulation or research‑oriented subjects, supported by lab and project work to build strong design and analysis skills. Students then choose several electives to specialise further in areas like advanced converter topologies, power systems and distribution apparatus, device/microelectronics aspects, or specialised control and simulation topics, giving flexibility to tailor the degree toward industry or research interests. In the final stage, learners either complete a dissertation on topics such as drive control, converter design, or renewable/EV powertrains, or opt for an industry‑based Practice School project where they work full‑time on live problems with a partner company, under joint academic and industry supervision. Overall, the program’s stated aim is to produce graduates who can model, design, control, and troubleshoot power electronic converters and drive systems and are ready for roles as design, field, testing, or systems engineers in utilities, OEMs, EV and renewable energy companies, and automation or power engineering organisations.
