Summary
Develop the critical understanding and practical skills needed to solve engineering problems creatively. Develop and implement solutions to engineering problems in renewable energy capture and sustainable design systems.
Throughout this course, you will make use of lab and field-testing facilities for measuring and monitoring the performance of different renewable energy systems, such as wind turbines, photovoltaic power systems and heat pumps. You will also learn to use tools for component and system design, simulation of the performance and monitoring of renewable energy systems.
These tools include Matlab/Simulink, GH WindFarmer and WAsP for wind farm design, PVsyst for photovoltaic system design and Labview for system monitoring. You’ll also have the option to experience a Professional/Work Placement in addition to the taught course.
Why study with us - Accredited by the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET)
-
You’ll benefit from our new £35 million Engineering Innovation Centre (EIC), which provides an integrated space for teaching and research with direct links to industry
-
Through our facilities at the EIC you’ll get the chance to work on live, real-world projects with commercial partners in state-of-the-art facilities
| Level | RQF Level 7 |
|---|---|
| Entry requirements | Honours degree in relevant scientific, engineering and technology subjects, grade 2:1 or above |
| Location | Preston Campus University of Lancashire Preston PR1 2HE |
