Power Engineering and Sustainable Energy, MSc

The MSc in Power Engineering and Sustainable Energy equips you with a sound knowledge of semiconductor devices and technologies, advanced power electronics, and advanced power systems. You will also learn about renewable energy generation technologies, wide band gap electronics, energy harvesting, solar cells and biofuels. Growing concerns about greenhouse gas emissions and global warming mean the subject of power engineering and sustainable energy has never been more vital. This course offers you the opportunity to do an additional year for an Industry Placement or project, giving you valuable work experience and the opportunity to improve technical plus interpersonal skills. The second Industry Placement Year course fees are £3600 for International students and £1800 for Home students. We are now able to offer academic performance based bursaries to cover this second year course fee. For more information, you can view our MSc with Industry page. Support and guidance is provided to help secure your placement; however it is not guaranteed.
