Electrical Engineering Technology Plant Operations

Students are exposed to theoretical and practical learning systems related to electrical engineering, especially in the field of oil and gas. The curriculum of this program focuses on electrical design activities in the oil and gas industry covering the basics of design, development and testing of electrical equipment such as electric motors, earthing, building wiring, switchboard systems, power systems, low voltage overhead lines, underground cables, distribution and transmission system analysis.

Students are also exposed to rules and safety aspects, especially in the oil and gas industry. Students who successfully graduate will be awarded a diploma in electrical engineering technology (plant operation) and a certificate of competency as a caretaker of electrical machinery (low voltage systems without power stations).
