The Erasmus Mundus Master Course in Sustainable Transportation and Electrical Power Systems (EMMC STEPS) offers a highly specialized education in Electrical Engineering, focusing on two areas of the highest technological content and professional requirements in the energy sector. The EMMC STEPS is promoted by a partnership led by the University of Oviedo (ES), together with the University of Nottingham (UK), the University of Rome (IT) and the Polytechnic Institute of Coimbra (PT).

Graduates successfully completing the EMMC STEPS academic programme will be awarded with a Joint Master Degree in Sustainable Transportation and Electrical Power Systems (STEPS) by all the Consortium universities, fully recognized in the four partner countries. The approach and content of the Master respond to main challenges faced by the energy sector:

• To master new energy sources and their implications to the power systems;
• To reduce CO2 emissions by increasing energy efficiency and the share of clean energies;
• To gradually incorporate electrical transportation as an alternative to vehicles using combustion engines.
