Renewable Energy Sources

2 YEARS | ENGLISH TAUGHT | ON CAMPUS

This program offers students detailed knowledge of all major renewable energy sources and the engineering skills associated with them, including geothermal, solar, biomass, hydro, marine and wind. In addition, there are courses covering legislative, planning and economic considerations associated with renewable energy, and the integration of renewable energy to the grid. The course covers both theoretical knowledge and advanced technical skills required to meet the demands of this ever-evolving sector. Teaching is done by expert faculty drawn from our engineering school as well as from the energy industry, to ensure that students are exposed to the latest developments and future needs of the renewable energy industry. One of the main features of the program is its interdisciplinary nature, being suitable for students with mechanical, civil, electrical, chemical and other suitable engineering backgrounds. In special cases, the program is also open to students with other relevant science backgrounds, including Physics, Chemistry and Applied Maths.
