Overview

The Master’s Degree programme provides solid skills necessary to operate with management and R&D functions in the sustainable production, distribution and use of energy in its various forms (mechanical, thermal, electrical, chemical). Energy engineers will be able to interact with environmental, economic and regulatory aspects. The programme also prepares professionals in the field of renewable sources and major energy conversions, with in-depth studies on combined plants, cogeneration and nuclear (fusion and fission) plants, energy in buildings, heating and cooling systems.
The Programme has received the EUR-ACE accreditation (European Network for the Accreditation of Engineering Education ) that provides a set of standards to identify high-quality Engineering degree programmes in Europe and abroad.

Programme structure

Common course units: Applied Energy, Combustion, Energy Systems, Electric Power Systems, Energy Economics, Heat Transfer and ThermoFluid-Dynamics, Measurements and Instrumentation, Renewable Energy Technologies.

Optional course units: Cogeneration and Combined Plants, Green Power Conversion and Utilization, Heating Ventilation Air Conditioning Systems, Advanced Control Systems, Nuclear Fission and Fusion Plants, Photovoltaic Science and Technology, Process technologies for Carbon-neutral fuels, Wind and Hydraulic Turbines, Energy and Buildings, Design and Optimization of Sustainable Energy Systems, Computational Thermo-Fluid Dynamics, Energy Audit

Career opportunities

The Master’s prepares highly qualified engineers able to:
- operate in the field of advanced design,
- integrate conventional and renewable energy systems,
- be competent in energy production, optimisation and management.
Energy Engineers can be employed in companies producing and distributing energy or producing equipment for the use of heat and cold, in companies dealing with energy transformation and utilisation, and in those producing mechanical equipment and electrical systems, as well as in technical departments of public administrations.
