Modern Electric Power Systems
ECE 145
Subject & Catalog Number
Course Information
Description
This course begins with a solid foundation in classical power system engineering, covering the basic operation and control of electric grids. It then explores the grid’s transformation into a data-rich, power electronically interfaced system. It introduces modern AI-driven approaches for forecasting, renewable integration, and smart grid operations. Through hands-on learning with simulation software, realistic data sets, and case studies, students will bridge engineering fundamentals with data science applications. The course equips students with tools to understand, model, and design sustainable and intelligent power systems in the age of AI.
Course Notes
This course was formerly numbered Engineering Sciences 145 (ES 145).
