Regular discussions and field testing create healthy environment for technology transfer. On-Line Voltage and Transient Instability Detection. Voltage Flicker Measurement and Control. Power System Harmonics. The Electric Power System Program at Clemson Undergraduate Curriculum Clemson University's electric power program plays an important role in providing engineers for the growing needs of the power industry.
Required courses give students a solid base in the fundamentals of electrical engineering.
Senior electives allow the student to work with an adviser to develop a strong program that fits the student's career objectives. Through required courses, students study the areas of circuit analysis, electronics, electromagnetic field theory, control systems, computer programming, microprocessors and an introduction to power engineering. During the Senior year, students select technical elective courses. The students attend lectures, visit substations and control facilities, and tour power- generating plants. The interaction with practicing engineers enables students to better understand the practical aspects of power engineering.
