management, operating, designing, application on projects in electricity
generation, transmission, distribution and installation. The graduated students,
other than teaching in research institutions and universities, can work in
research organizations or organizations responsible for industrial plans and
domestic industrial goods. Te maximum of this curriculum is three half years
(semesters), i.e. the students who are not obliged to take compensatory units, if
they study well can finish their education in three half years. The system of the
curriculum is based on credits and each theoretical credit contains 16 hours
teaching. The maximum duration of this curriculum is 5 half years. In special
situations, however, we can increase the length to 6 half years.
 MS in Electrical Engineering – control
