A superconducting motor (1) which operates in a synchronous mode of operation, can also be operated in an induction mode in the event that the superconducting components (30) of the motor (1) lose their superconducting properties (e.g., due to cooling system failure). The superconducting electric motor (1) includes a rotor assembly (5) having at least one superconducting winding (30) which, in operation, generates a flux path within the rotor assembly (5), and a support member (20) which supports the at least one superconducting windings (30). The rotor assembly (5) is configured to operate in a synchronous mode of operation at temperatures when the superconducting winding (5) exhibits superconducting characteristics.
