Renewable Energy Engineering

This engineering course concentrates on energy technology and the wise use of the planet's limited resources. Learners apply core engineering knowledge to design sustainable energy systems and contribute to the next generation of solutions. Facilities include 3D printers, laser cutters, circuit simulation packages and digital signal processing boards. Early study is shared with other engineering programmes, establishing scientific foundations before students narrow their focus. Students also learn to test designs against energy performance targets and environmental constraints. Graduates can pursue careers in renewable energy and engineering design. Part-time study is possible, and a foundation year pathway is open to applicants who need additional preparation. Assessment involves laboratory reports, design tasks and project work that show how engineering principles apply to energy systems.
