Energy Engineering, BEng (Hons)

The demand for clean energy specialists is rapidly increasing, with a focus on the production, storage, and transmission of renewable energy sources and transition fuels. This course equips students with essential mechanical and electrical engineering principles, alongside expertise in sustainable technologies such as solar, wind, geothermal, tidal systems, hydrogen, power storage, and distribution. As the World Meteorological Organization predicts, clean energy supply must double by 2030 to meet net-zero goals, potentially creating 42 million renewable jobs globally. Students also develop commercial skills in planning, project management, and innovation to stay abreast of industry advancements.Key attractions include £27,000 scholarships, teaching by chartered engineers with industry collaboration, access to state-of-the-art labs, optional industry placements, and free maths support. Graduates can pursue roles in energy engineering, designing power plants, reducing carbon emissions, conducting site inspections, and optimizing energy efficiency to minimize environmental impact.
