Overview

This foundation degree examines green power generation, covering solar, wind, wave and hydro systems. It helps engineers develop their careers in a fast-moving field that makes a meaningful environmental difference. Teaching emphasises practical exploration, with learners working in facilities that include 3D printers, laser cutters, circuit simulation software and digital signal processing boards. Students study the design principles behind wind turbines, solar arrays and tidal devices, and learn how to assess their output and cost. The course is available on a part-time basis. Graduates can progress into renewable energy engineering roles or continue to further study.
