Whether you are currently pursuing a higher degree or considering enrolling in a master’s program, your job prospects upon completing your education are likely a high concern. Positions in electrical engineering in general currently have a promising outlook. According to the U.S. Bureau for Labor Statistics, the average salary for one of these positions is $95,230 per year, and the number of positions is not expected to decline through 2020. However, because the bureau predicts little growth in the overall number of jobs between 2014 and 2024, having the experience and knowledge provided by a master’s degree can help set you apart in what could prove to be a competitive field.

While a background in power systems will aid you in most any position as an electrical engineer, there are also a number of more specialized roles that are available to you when you have this specific expertise. Some of these positions include titles such as:

• Electrical power systems engineer
• Electrical engineer infrastructure and power distribution
• Power supply engineer
• Line design engineer
• Power transmission and distribution engineer
• AC-DC power systems engineer
