RESEARCH

The Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering has the following research groups:

• Research Program on Acquisition and Analysis of Signals - PAAS-UN
• Research Group on Electromagnetic Compatibility - EMC-UN
• Research Group on High-Frequency Electronics and Telecommunications - CMUN
• Research group on the Colombian energy sector - GRISEC
• Electrical Machines & Drives - EM&D

All the mentioned groups are recognized by Colciencias and classified according to the ranking of this entity. The student of Electronics Engineering can join to these groups either to carry out their degree work or through as auxiliary students, since the groups sometimes require students to collaborate in their work.

Students can join not only to the groups of the department, but to all of the university. Due to the different applications of Electronics Engineering, groups from different areas of knowledge may require support in this field.
