Faculty of Power and Electrical Engineering

 

I. GENERAL INFORMATION

The Faculty was founded in 1963 (1963-1967 – Faculty of Electrotechnics from which the years 1963-1964 in the State University and the years 1964-1967 at the Polytechnic Institute “S. Lazo”, in the years 1967-2014 – Faculty of Energetics and from 2014 – Faculty of Energetics and Electrical Engineering).

The first promotion of the faculty (1964) numbered 66 graduates, and the 51st promotion ( 2014 year) – 137 graduates. The opening of the faculty coincided with the intense electrification of all the branches of national economy: construction of large thermal power plants (Chisinau, Balti, Cuciurgan), new transmission and distribution of electricity, electrification of rural areas, transport, industrial and construction units and the opening of several enterprises with electrotechnical character – “Electromasina”, “Hidropompa”, “Vibroaparat” etc.

 

II. FACULTY STRUCTURE

• Department of Power Engineering
• Department of Electrical Engineering
• Department of Physical Education and Sport

Faculty possesses specialized laboratories, computer rooms; research, design and consultancy centers, a didactic-methodical center and a center for students’ creativity.

 

III. TEACHING STAFF

At the faculty activate responsable teachers, including doctors habilitate and university professors, PhDs, associate professors.

For many years at the Faculty departments it is practiced the part time hiring of the best graduates of the faculty as teachers, those employed in enterprises and companies, design organizations and others in this field, which is very important as it ensures an effective cooperation between the academic area and that of production and design.

V.   STUDENTS

For over 50 years of activity there have been trained about 9,000 engineers. An important tradition in the activity of the faculty is student participation with reports at student’s conferences, organized within TUM and Romania in the fields of Energetics, Electrotechnics and Economics in Energetics. Students also have the opportunity to undertake internships and to continue their master education in Romania, France, Sweden.

 

VI. GRADUATES

Our graduates are in high demand because they possess a high level of training that allows them to activate successfully in various fields. Some graduates  manifested themselves as manufacture organizers, as leaders of large collectives. Others have become scientists, inventors, or simply good specialists at workplace.

Over the years we have established close working relationships with SE Moldelectrica, Î.C.S. “RED Union Fenosa” JSC, JSC RED-Nord, Termoelectrica JSC, Energy Efficiency Agency, JSC RED Nord-Vest, ASM Energy Institute, design institute “Energoproiect” Companies InterElectroComplect, VOLTA, InformBusines, and TehelectroSV and others.
