    12 months full time

Course Description

Renewable energy and reducing carbon emissions are top of the global environmental agenda. This masters programme is designed to address the fundamentals of renewable energy and shows how solar, wind and other energy sources can work harmoniously and be efficiently integrated into practical power systems.

You will study core power engineering topics such as power converters, electric drives and control alongside modules specific to renewable energy sources and power system.

At the same time, you will study a unique range of modules on the generation of electricity from solar and wind power, energy management through the applications of power electronics and comprehensive analysis of smart grid systems. You will also explore the opportunity to address the control and management issues in modern energy systems.

You will be prepared to meet the renewable energy challenges and problems in a wide range of careers.
