Gain a comprehensive understanding of different energy systems. You'll develop the technical expertise and management skills to tackle global energy challenges, optimise resource use and lead innovative projects across the energy sector.
This course equips you with the technical expertise and management skills to tackle energy challenges and drive innovation in industrial contexts. You'll gain a deep understanding of conventional and renewable energy systems, fuels and low-carbon technologies, alongside practical experience through applied experiments and energy audits.
The course integrates industrial management and innovation principles, preparing you to lead projects, manage change and deliver sustainable solutions in energy engineering. You will learn to combine technical knowledge with strategic thinking through modules in innovation management, strategic engineering management and real-world commercial problem-solving.
Hands-on learning is central to the course. Laboratory sessions, workshops and applied engineering projects develop practical skills in energy system design, analysis and performance evaluation.
A substantial research project, undertaken under the supervision of experienced academics, allows you to explore a specialist topic, solve real-world energy or industrial challenges, and communicate your findings through a dissertation, technical portfolio and presentation.
Optional modules allow you to tailor your studies to your interests, including nuclear reactor engineering, petroleum and biofuels, and low-carbon technologies.
By combining engineering expertise with industrial management skills, this course prepares you for professional roles in energy generation, sustainable technology, industrial operations and energy consultancy. Graduates leave ready to innovate, manage and lead in a rapidly evolving energy sector.
English language requirements: IELTS 6.5 (with 6 in each component) or University equivalent.
