power system dynamics course contents

The document outlines two core courses in Electrical Power Systems: Analysis (EE 8310) and Dynamics (EE 8405). The Analysis course focuses on electrical network constants, load flow studies, and power system modeling, while the Dynamics course emphasizes power system performance, stability, and automatic generation control. Both courses include lectures, tutorials, and assessments through continuous evaluation and end-of-semester examinations.
