Electrified Systems Design Engineer

Engineering the shift to electrified systems

As power systems, vehicles, and infrastructure move toward electrification, the engineering skill set needed to design them is shifting too. MathWorks' Professional Certificate is built around that transition, combining classic electrical power systems knowledge with the modeling and simulation tools used to design them today.

• Electric power systems and electrical systems fundamentals
• Model-based systems engineering as a design approach
• Engineering software for simulating electrified systems before they're built
• Energy, utilities, and climate-mitigation context for why this work matters

It's set at a beginner level, so it's accessible to engineering students or early-career engineers moving into power systems or electrification work, not just specialists already deep in the field. The emphasis on simulation tooling over pure theory makes it more hands-on than a typical electrical engineering course.

Enrollment is modest at 2,485 learners, which fits a program serving a specific, growing niche — electrified systems design — rather than a broad general-audience topic. For the right learner, that focus is the appeal.
