Renewable energy production is increasing rapidly and there is a global shortage of trained engineers. With this master's course youll have a highly relevant qualification that's accredited by the Engineering Council via the Institution of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE). The course covers topics such as photovoltaic, wind, thermo-mechanical energy conversion systems, hybrid renewable energy systems, energy efficiency, building energy modelling and engineering optimisation. The University has a well-established reputation for renewable and sustainable energy technologies. You will benefit from excellent technical facilities including specialist workshops. We also have a laboratory that's dedicated to power networks, wind energy, photovoltaics and battery testing for electric vehicles. In the second year, for one semester, you will have the chance to study in another country or join a research group. This valuable experience will enhance your employability and further develop your theoretical and practical skills.<br><br>By the end of this course youll be in an excellent position to start or continue a career in renewable and sustainable energy technologies. Renewable energy production could increase by up to 1,000% by 2050 compared to 2010, according to the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, so there will be a pressing need for well-trained professionals. You could also undertake a postgraduate research degree such as an MPhil, PhD and Professional Doctorate. If you decide to start up your own business, it's good to know that the combined turnover of our graduates start-up companies is higher than that of any other UK university. Whatever you decide to do, you will have the transferable skills that employers expect from a master's graduate from Northumbria University. These include the ability to tackle complex issues through conceptualisation and undertaking research, the ability to contribute to new processes and knowledge, and the ability to formulate balanced judgements when considering incomplete or ambiguous data.
