Bachelor of Renewable Energy Engineering (Honours)

The University of Newcastle

One of the biggest challenges humankind faces is the transition to a renewable energy economy. The success of this evolution depends on the next generation's creative solutions. Our renewable energy engineers will have the specialised skills to make a difference.Renewable energy engineering spans the disciplines of chemical, electrical and mechanical engineering. You will work across a range of technologies for renewable energy capture, conversion, storage, delivery and management. You’ll also choose courses in related areas of climate change policy, law, economics, and environmental sciences. To meet the global commitment to tackling climate change, highly qualified engineers are required. Engineers with specialties in renewable energy engineering will be in high demand.In addition, there are community concerns about wind energy security and affordability. This has driven government and organisations to hire highly trained engineers with expertise in the multidisciplinary field of renewable energy. These engineers evaluate, design, operate and optimise renewable energy systems for power generation.
