Overview

On this course, you’ll study the important aspects of the supply, production and processing as well as the use of energy. You’ll look at ways of reducing energy use, the problems associated with the burning of fuels, and approaches to developing more efficient and cleaner energy systems.

The first two years of all our courses are the same so you have the flexibility to switch courses, up to the end of the second year.
