Cuba Boosts Training in Electrical Engineering

Havana, Dec 11 (acn) Cuba is promoting the training of electrical 
engineers to face the shortage of skilled personnel in that area, a 
crucial task for the successful fulfilment of the energy revolution 
undertaken throughout the island.

In statements to Juventud Rebelde newspaper, the director of the Center 
for Energy Research (CIPEL), Miriam Vilaragut Llanes, referred to the 
importance of training a professional capable of using and repairing 
all the equipment employed in the National Energy Network.

CIPEL, adjoined to the Faculty of Electrical Engineering at the Jose 
Antonio Echeverria Higher Polytechnic Institute, leads the training of 
the personnel in the field.

"Between 40 and 70 students graduate every year at CIPEL," said 
Vilaragut who further added that the institution along with the Higher 
Education Ministry and the Cuban Electrical Union are working on the 
promotion of the enrolment of new pupils for CIPEL.
