All manufacturing processes require for its operation of electrical energy, so engineers with knowledge and ability to design and project generation, transport, distribution and use systems of electrical energy are essential in industrial work. Likewise, the integration of renewable energies in the energy sector is one of the challenges of electrical engineering, a work field that is in constant expansion and development at international level.

Electrical engineering is responsible for the design, construction, manufacture, installation and maintenance of machines, facilities or electrical systems in the activities of generation, transport, distribution and consumption of electricity. 

In the specialty in Electrical Engineering of the Master in Industrial Engineering you will learn to design and project facilities for the generation of electricity (power plants), including renewable energy (electrical systems and the integration of renewables), high voltage electrical installations (substations and high voltage lines; electrical systems protection) and electric machines including transport -based transport (machines, drives and electric mobility). Likewise, you will learn to model and analyze the behavior of the electrical system (electrical power systems), and you can deepen issues such as the management of electrical networks with a high level of distributed generation and self -consumption (intelligent electrical networks), and the hiring of the supply of electricity and the operation of electricity markets (regulation and economy of the electricity sector).

In the 2025/26 course, the subjects of the first course will be offered and in 2026/27 those of the second year. These subjects are taken together with the degree in Industrial Technologies Engineering ( GITI-201 0). The following table shows the correspondence between the subjects of the specialty and those of the Giti-2010.
