Summary
Climate change, the global consumption of energy and the use of fossil fuels to provide us with heat, power and transportation are all engineering challenges which need addressing now and in the future. Solutions to these long-term problems will require graduates who can work in an increasingly multidisciplinary environment. This course will offer you the knowledge and expertise you will need in relation to sustainable energy and the environmental impact of energy systems. You will develop an understanding of current problems and new insights which are at the forefront of sustainable energy systems and the environment.
The course aims to produce postgraduate specialists who can demonstrate mastery of a broad spectrum of advanced engineering principles to the technological, financial, regulatory, managerial and ethical problems encountered in the sustainable energy and environmental profession. You will be able to show originality in the application of your knowledge, together with a practical understanding of how established techniques of research and enquiry are used to create and interpret knowledge in this topical subject area.
Distinctive features:
- This course is accredited by the Institution of Mechanical Engineers and the Energy Institute on behalf of the Engineering Council as meeting the requirements for Further Learning for registration as a Chartered Engineer. Candidates must hold a CEng accredited undergraduate first degree to comply with full CEng registration requirements.
- You will develop a comprehensive understanding of techniques applicable to your own research or advanced scholarship and have access to the excellent research facilities available in the School.
