Thinking about a day-to-day life without electricity, cars, TVs, cell phones, elevators, computers, and smartwatches is like going back in time. Electronics are present in our lives in various equipment and devices that have brought great progress to society. If you want to understand what is behind these innovations, electrical engineering is the place for you. The great difference in the Electrical Engineering course at PUCRS is the high workload dedicated to practical experimentation through its laboratory disciplines. For this reason, our students often enter the job market even before graduation. As an electrical engineer, you can work in areas such as electronics, telecommunications, control and automation, energy systems, and biomedical engineering.
In addition to all the technical knowledge, our course trains professionals with critical and innovative thinking, capable of finding creative and effective solutions to everyday needs. Here you will also develop skills and competencies such as teamwork, leadership spirit, ethics and much more.
