Modern engineering teams must design complex electrified systems, combining power electronics, electric motors, and batteries, while meeting performance, efficiency, and reliability requirements.
In this Professional Certificate, you’ll build job-ready skills in modeling, simulation, and model-based design to analyze and develop electrified systems using workflows adopted across leading automotive, consumer electronics, industrial automation, and energy companies.
You’ll begin by understanding how electrified systems are designed, then build dynamic models in Simulink and physical models in Simscape. As you progress, you’ll design and simulate key components, including power converters, electric motors, and battery systems, and integrate them into system-level models.
By the end, you’ll be able to build and simulate complete electrified systems, analyze performance across operating conditions, and design and evaluate real-world engineering systems. Enroll to start building these skills and applying them to your own engineering projects.
