Course Description

The move to cleaner economic growth is one of the greatest industrial challenges and opportunities of our time.

The offshore wind industry underpins UK solutions to this challenge to reduce carbon emissions in line with the UK’s climate 2050 commitments.

There’s no better place study an MSc in Offshore Wind Energy. The University of Hull is leading the way in renewable energies and low carbon futures through Aura and the Energy and Environment Institute. Due to our favourable geography, local expertise and government support, the Humber Estuary in particular is now the globally leading location for offshore wind development and employment.

On this degree, you’ll gain a multidisciplinary understanding of the offshore wind industry and its relationship and environment, as well as developing professional skills and collaborative working.

Student Destinations

The UK is already the world leader in offshore wind, providing over 10% of the UK’s electricity and growing at an unprecedented rate. It’s predicted by 2030, the industry will provide a third of British electricity and triple its workforce.

Studying this programme at Hull will equip you with the skills necessary to meet the expected skills shortage in the offshore wind sector.
