Energy Systems

About course

The Master of Science in Energy Systems integrates the technology side of energy systems development with the financial planning needed to effectively implement them. The goal of the program is to create a high-level, signature, interdisciplinary graduate program for the engineer or technical business major who is pursuing an industrial or public-planning-based career. The program curriculum is firmly rooted in energy technology and includes exposure to the interface with business and financial decision processes. Students are exposed to business educators and practicing professionals and have the opportunity to participate in a six-month co-op experience. Practicing professionals with experience at this interface who have successfully implemented energy systems or devices and policies are actively involved in the program as adjunct professors and invited speakers. The curriculum is flexibly designed with a set of six core courses in engineering knowledge and finance and four electives that can be taken from any department within the College of Engineering. Through this curriculum and interaction with practitioners, the students should be prepared to effectively integrate energy system development over a broad spectrum of technologies with the financial requirements to successfully implement them and to compete in the global energy market.
