Ne öğreneceğim?
The course in sustainable energy engineering will provide you with advanced knowledge and skills in the key engineering aspects of renewable and sustainable energy. It covers topics such as wind, photovoltaic, thermo-mechanical energy conversion systems, and the environment, energy efficiency, building energy modelling and engineering optimisation. In this course, opportunities will be provided to every student to develop expertise in the key area of personal interest. You will develop a critical awareness of ethical and environmental considerations as well as society's needs. You will learn to create multi-criteria optimal solutions to a variety of renewable and sustainable energy technologies problems. When you graduate, you will also have a comprehensive and systematic understanding of research methods and techniques and can conduct research-based projects and disseminate research outputs.You will be taught by academics and industrial practitioners we work with. You will benefit from our close links with major employers, and the continued support of the Industrial Advisory Board in enhancing the employability of our students in the wider engineering sector. The course covers topics such as wind, photovoltaic, thermo-mechanical energy conversion systems, hybrid renewable energy systems, sustainable energy and the environment, energy efficiency, building energy modelling and engineering optimisation. Apart from the technical content, MSc courses are unique, as there is a strong emphasis on professional life and employability skills, embedded throughout all aspects of your advanced technical course focusing on your enhanced key skills such as communication, digital proficiency, intelligence (like emotional and social) and teamwork. The programme will also offer an optional placement year to all students, enabling them to experience the real world and effectively connect their university experience with it.All modules include coursework, for which you will have opportunities to apply your knowledge to engineering projects based on real-life scenarios. The coursework will include analysis and design projects, research reports, group and seminar presentations and a research dissertation project.You will also attend lectures, seminars and tutorials and you will work both individually and in groups.Globally, overall demand for renewables is expected to increase due to their use in the electricity sector and there is already a high demand for technical professionals in this area. An MSc qualification in Sustainable Energy Engineering will give you a practical edge as the discipline overlaps with a number of engineering profession. There are many career paths available, ranging from hard-core engineering to consultancy and even policy-making government institutions, once you have completed this course. Many graduates choose to pursue a professional high-flying career in the expansive engineering sector, in roles such as consultants, designers, field engineers, project managers or senior managers.
