Description
Summary:This paper proposes to adopt the emerging Professional Science Master (PSM) program as a model for enriching power engineering education. PSM programs provide comprehensive training in an academic and technical specialty along with the appropriate professional skills needed for a professional career. The paper outlines the new PSM program-MS in Electric Power Systems Engineering. The program encompasses engineering, management, and other professional skills needed for a successful career in the power engineering industry, and includes both in-depth core power engineering topics as wells as new cross-disciplinary technical topics relevant to the clean-energy Smart Grid.
