School of Electrical Engineering
Build a sustainable future with research - study a doctorate at Aalto
We are hiring 178 doctoral researchers in the new doctoral education pilot funded by the Finnish Ministry of Education and Culture.
Care robots, speech recognition, micromaterials, galaxies near and far away – the School of Electrical Engineering is so much more than electricity and smart power grids, as we study many topics you might not initially associate with the electrical industry. We take part in solving the great challenges humanity is facing, such as climate change, the depletion of natural resources and an aging population.

Congratulations to the 50 year old Metsähovi Radio Observatory
Exactly 50 years ago on April 11, 1974, the radio telescope in Kirkkonummi moved for the first time, and since then it has gathered data from outer space 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
Study electrical engineering
Electricity is everywhere, and our society would not function without it. As a student at the School of Electrical Engineering, you can find solutions to issues related to sustainable development and human well-being.
Get to know our research: our departments and Metsähovi Radio Observatory
Our research is based on excellent cooperation, and we have exceptionally good connections to the business world. Here at the School of Electrical Engineering our students and researchers get a chance to roll up their sleeves, because we conduct a lot of applied research in addition to theoretical research. Our investments in first-class facilities and research equipment ensure that our hard work will help society evolve.
The School of Electrical Engineering has three departments and one separate unite.
