Department of Electrical Engineering and Automation
An ecosystem for scientists and engineers from different fields of microsystems, electrical engineering and automation.
Research
The Department of Electrical Engineering and Automation (EEA) comprises three clusters: Power and Energy; Control, Robotics and Autonomous Systems; and Sensing and Measurement.
We are part of the School of Electrical Engineering’s thematic infrastructures Micro-electronics and Digital and Autonomous Systems (MIDAS), Electrical Power and Energy (EPE) and Human-centric Electrical Engineering (HUCE), and we are members of the OtaNano research infrastructure. The department is a key contributor to Aalto University’s Hydrogen Innovation Centre.
