The first graduate studies program in the department was limited to opening specialized high diploma in power systems and electronics, and it was created in the academic year 1976/1977, which is one year following the establishment of the University of Technology. In the academic year 1981/1982, a high diploma in communication engineering has been created. The first master’s program was established in the department in the fields of power system, electronics, and commutations in 1982/1983. In 1987/1988, a solid-state master specialty has been created in addition to the earlier three specializations. Since its establishment, the Graduate Studies in the department has always managed to supply the country with modern scientific programs on the levels of diploma, master’s, and doctoral, and high specialization in the fields of electrical engineering. The Graduate Studies division supervises on all activities related to the graduate studies in the department in coordination with the graduate studies committees in the Electrical and Electronic and Communications Engineering Divisions.
