Course summary
This degree gives you the scientific and technical foundation to understand, design and manage cleaner and more efficient energy systems. As we transition to a greener economy, you will learn how to investigate and propose new systems using renewable and sustainable resources operating within regulatory frameworks. Build towards a sustainable future with our Energy and Sustainability Engineering degree, focusing on energy technologies, policy and regulations, and energy supply and demand. We will equip you with the skills and knowledge to take a multidisciplinary approach to tackling the challenges of sustainable development, and access to clean and affordable energy. Over three years, we will build and align your professional skills with innovative and sustainable solutions to current and future problems in energy systems. Individual and group engineering design projects will help to demonstrate your expertise to future employers.
- Learn to understand and analyse the broad context of energy and sustainability engineering, involving major issues with the energy system and potential routes forward
- Benefit from exceptional industry involvement in the degree, including projects set by respected industry professionals and guest lectures
- Study in world-leading research facilities where new engineering systems are designed, developed and implemented for industry
- Take an optional placement year, or divide your placement over two summer periods, using our research strengths and links with industry to boost your employability.
Modules
You will develop a broad background in engineering subjects and concepts, before beginning to specialise in the field of energy and sustainability. The Engineer in Society is an innovative theme across each year. We introduce you to the economic, social and technical context where engineers work, and develop your social responsibility, knowledge, and topical engineering skills.
