What does this master consist of?
The Master in Smart Grids (MSG) is a 90 ECTS Master of Science degree offered jointly by the University of Strathclyde and the ICAI School of Engineering, in close collaboration with Iberdrola. This program's primary objective is to meet the increasing demand for engineers equipped to lead the ongoing digitalization of the electric grid.
The MSG program provides students with a detailed understanding of grid operation and planning within this new paradigm, alongside emerging business opportunities and models in this constantly evolving field. Developed in close collaboration with Iberdrola, this partnership ensures both practical relevance through industry participation and rigorous academic content.
Scholarship Opportunity: for the upcoming academic year, we are offering scholarships from Gridespertise that cover 50% of the academic fees for our Master's students. These scholarships also guarantee an internship placement at Gridespertise.

Students not only spend one semester in both Spain and Scotland, but also carry out internships at any of the international offices of the partner entities.
One step ahead
POWER NETWORKS: ESSENTIAL FOR ENERGY TRANSITION
The IEA estimates that worldwide investments in Power Networks must double the current levels- reaching $750 billion annually by 2030.
DIGITALIZATION
Digitalization is the most efficient way to support the deployment and upgrade of power networks.
NEW TALENT AND SKILLS
Both are highly sought after. This Master's in Smart Grids is the ideal program for those aiming to lead the energy transition.
What makes us different
Energy
The transformation of energy is essential to achieve the desired goal of sustainability. The energy transition should be oriented toward this.
Electricity
Electricity is poised to play the most significant role in the energy transition. Robust electrical networks are crucial for facilitating this transformation.
Smart grids
Smart grids are electrical networks that facilitate the energy transition by intensively leveraging new technologies, particularly those enabling digitalization.
Social aspects
In this transition, the social component plays an essential role through education and training at all levels.
Energy plays a key role in managing the unprecedented challenge that we face: climate change.
