Renewable Energy Engineering MSc/Diploma/Certificate | What can I study? | Heriot-Watt University. This course will provide an advanced MSc course in the rapidly expanding area of renewable energy engineering. The course is aimed at students wishing to develop critical understanding of the significant changes afoot in the energy system due to the development and integration of wind, marine, biomass and solar technologies. The course will provide graduates of a calibre capable of developing and implementing creative solutions to the problems encountered in renewable energy capture, conversion, storage and management. This course is concerned with the concepts, applications, design, development and deployment of renewable energy converters, and energy storage and demand management systems. The aims are to enable the students to: Scholarship Opportunity Scottish Funding Council has made available 20 scholarships covering fees only to students with Scottish backgrounds.

Programme duration One year (MSc)9 months (Diploma) MSc Renewable Energy and the Built Environment. A postgraduate degree from the University of East London, based at the Graduate School of the Environment at the Centre for Alternative Technology The MSc Renewable Energy and the Built Environment (REBE) course is taught at the Centre for Alternative Technology (CAT) in mid Wales. The course offers a unique combination of academic study with practical experience and is based in the award-winning Wales Institute for Sustainable Education (WISE), creating a unique learning environment. The course is delivered by staff from CAT and specialist visitors from the industry. This brings the advantage of combining an academic programme with the practical application of research and development that has established CAT as Europe’s leading eco–centre.

Students completing a Masters in Renewable Energy and the Built Environment have a great amount of flexibility on the course. Aims The theory and practice of renewable energies are examined through both practical work and academic study. Fees Apply now. MSc in Electrical Technologies for Sustainable and Renewable Energy Systems at University of Nottingham. This MSc is designed to provide instruction and training in the most recent developments in equipment and systems used to interface and control renewable and sustainable energy systems.

The course provides essential knowledge both for electrical engineers wanting to work within the renewable energy systems industry, and for engineers planning a research career in the field. Following the successful completion of the taught modules, an individual research project is undertaken during the summer term. Previous research projects on this course have included: the design of a DC-DC voltage convertor with maximum power tracking for a photovoltaic module electrical modelling of a PEM fuel Cell microprocessor based control of a wind turbine generator optimisation of the operation of a renewable energy micro grid Scholarship information can be found at. European Master in Renewable Energy. Renewable Energy Systems Technology - Prospective students - Loughborough University. Programme information Reducing carbon emissions by 80% by 2050 requires a transition to energy provided by renewable systems technology.

The internationally renowned Master of Science course in Renewable Energy Systems Technology, was a pioneer in the field when it was established in 1993. Today this MSc teaches an international community of students about the latest advances in clean power developments and enables graduates to design and develop benign renewable energy solutions that can be implemented in countries around the world. It is aimed at engineers and natural scientists pursuing or wishing to pursue a career in the renewable energy sector, particularly those in technical positions e.g. systems designers, technical consultants and R&D engineers and scientists.

This is a very practical course backed up by strong theoretical understanding of the principles and facts behind renewable energy production. Key Facts Facilities Find out more about our outstanding facilities here Assessment.
