Joint MSc in Electrical Engineering
Start date: Dec 1, 2013,

This Project aims to enhance the capacity of three PS universities by developing a sustainable joint MSc programme in electrical engineering focused on energy/power & networking and communications and provide necessary facilities to be utilized by graduate students during their studies and thesis. The main target groups of this project are the staff of three PS universities and the students studying the MSc programme.The specific objectives are: 1) To develop and implement a joint MSc programme curriculum in electrical engineering combining two modes of delivery; e-learning and face to face, to be jointly taught by universities in PS. 2) To promote the adoption of the Bologna system; QA procedures and ECTS. 3) To enrich the capacity of Palestinian academics by providing research collaboration opportunities with EU staff through joint MSc thesis supervision.4) To equip laboratories to be utilized by students during their MSc studies5) To enhance links with PS local industry to provide relevant MSc projects and career paths for graduatesThe objectives will be achieved through a well planned suite of activities: 1) short visits for PS universities staff to EU institutions to explore EU teaching methodologies including e-learning platforms; 2) short visits by EU professors to PS universities to deliver training and continual professional development (CPD) courses to PS staff ; 3) short visits by EU professors to deliver modules to MSc students; 4) 3-month study period for 8 PS MSc students at EU universities for joint thesis supervision. JMEE EU partners have a combined rich experience of electrical engineering teaching and research and a successful track record of previous TEMPUS projects which ensures the achievement of project objectives. EU consortium academics will contribute to the teaching of the MSc's first run. On a longer term, consortium academics (PS & EU) will embark on joint research proposals and publications in areas of common interest.
