The Program focuses on four specializations of the Electrical Engineering discipline. The four specializations are:

  1. Communication Systems
  2. Power Systems
  3. Control Systems
  4. Computer Engineering

Each specialization requires a different set of mandatory and technical elective courses.

The language of instruction is English.

 

Key Learning Outcomes

  1. Apply appropriate mathematical, science and engineering methods and use computer software to solve engineering related to their specialization.
  2. Use state-of-the-art design automation software and hardware tools, as well as laboratory equipment to design, and evaluate electrical systems related to their specialization.
  3. Use of analytical methods and modelling techniques to evaluate electrical systems and components in terms of general quality attributes and possible trade-offs presented within the given problem.
  4. Apply knowledge and solve problems related to the forefront of knowledge in the field of their specialization and on the emerging technologies.
  5. Retrieve and analyze information from different sources, including information retrieval through databases and on-line computer searches.
  6. Demonstrate competency in oral and written communication skills, as well as in the use of relevant computing technologies and tools.

Career Prospects

The graduates of the Program have the knowledge and skills required for the design, implementation, maintenance and administration of electrical systems related to their specialization.

Communication Systems graduates can be employed in public or private sector at internet and cellular communication providers, or communication infrastructure design and maintenance.

Power Systems graduates can seek employment in public or private sector industries related to electric power generation and distribution, companies activating in renewable energy systems, or as electrical engineer in industrial facilities.

How to apply

Candidates for a master degree must submit a recognized bachelor degree or qualification deemed to be equivalent to degree level as well as the official transcripts (grade reports) of their first-degree studies. In addition, there could be special requirements for various master programs.

Application deadline

Frederick University academic year consists of the fall and spring semesters. The calendar is arranged so that students may start classes either during the last week of September or the first week of February. Candidates may submit an application for admission in any of the semesters. Due to the fact that formalities for the issue of an entry visa take at least 6 weeks, candidates are urged to file an application at least 8 weeks prior to the expected date of enrolment. Students are expected to be on campus prior to the beginning of the intended semester/session. In response to arising need, courses could be provided within the summer period.

Entry requirements

Qualification requirements

Candidates who are nationals of EU countries can enter Cyprus as visitors. On arrival at Frederick University they must submit to the Admission Office the following:

  1. A fully completed application form.
  2. An application fee of Euro 25 (non-refundable).
  3. Attested (certified true) copies of their academic qualifications.
  4. Evidence of proficiency in English
  5. A photocopy of their passport. The passport should be valid for at least one year from the date of their arrival to Cyprus.
  6. A recent certificate of good conduct issued by the police of the candidate's country of origin or residence, if necessary translated in Greek or English. The good conduct certificate should be original and issued less than 6 months prior to the beginning of the semester for which the student is applying. The names and titles of the persons issuing and certifying the document should be clearly stated therein.

Furthermore, they must pay the registration fee, the semester tuition fees, and register for subjects. Next they must apply to the Migration Department for a temporary residence permit. The application to the Migration Department must be supported by evidence that they have paid their tuition fees for the semester, have enough funds for their initial living expenses and have obtained local health insurance coverage.

B. Applicants from non EU countries
International Students from non EU countries need to have a valid student visa in order to be allowed to enter Cyprus. The issue of an entry visa takes about 6 weeks from the date of the submission of the application. It is therefore recommended that candidates submit their application at least 8 weeks before the beginning of the semester. Cyprus Migration Department requirements in respect of the issue of a student visa, which from time to time may be modified, are available to candidates in a separate document.

Applicants are requested to contact the Office of Admissions to receive information and guidance regarding the proper documentation and formalities to be followed.

Additional entry requirements

Personal interviews are not normally required as part of the admission process; however, Frederick University reserves the right to request an interview before making a final decision on accepting an applicant.

English language requirements

English language certificate,(level B2) is a must for non-EU students.
