With your master's thesis on the subject of "Protection for traction power systems" you will get insights to current state of the art protection and contribute to fundamental research for enhanced protection functionality. As part of your work, you will focus on the following in detail:

·  You collect traces of protection devices and evaluate them.
·  You will define categories to classify protection events and establish a corresponding system of fault messages.
·  You will also develop algorithms for automated classification of fault messages.
·  You extract additional information from traces and present it to your colleagues.

Your qualifications – solid and appropriate

·  You are studying electrical engineering, ideally with a focus on power engineering.
·  You are confident in using the MS Office package. It is also an advantage if you have already worked with Matlab.
