Doctoral Programs
The authorization of Ph.D degree in this specialty was gained in 2000. Also it is the Key Discipline Projects on Power Electronic and Electric Drives supported by Shanghai Education Commission. There are some laboratories and research institutes such as the key laboratory of marine technology and control engineering of ministry of Communications, the Research Institute of Electric Drives and Control Systems, with 12 professors and an invited professor. Their research interesting focus on 4 areas: electric drives and control systems for the applications in ships or harbor equipments; power electronics technologies for the applications in renewable energy developments; intelligent information processing and intelligent control for the applications in state monitoring, fault diagnosis and fault tolerant control for ship or harbor systems; power system control and optimization including system stable, control, optimization, management and intelligent methods.
