Course summary
With the world’s population set to reach nine billion in 2050, obtaining enough clean water, air, land, food and energy becomes even more difficult an issue for modern society.
Our Energy and Environmental Engineering degree equips graduates with the skills and knowledge to be 21st-century engineers prepared to meet the environmental challenges of industry and society.
Why choose this course?
- Career prospectus for Energy and Environmental Engineers are very good, with demand for engineers in this sector currently very high. It is anticipated that across Europe, there is going to be a need for 1.5 million engineers in this field over the next five to ten years.
- UWTSD provides a welcoming and supportive learning environment where students focus on real-world problem/applications. Students work in small groups to develop solutions to a range of problems enabling the development of teamwork, leadership, project management and concept development.
- You will be given the opportunity to visit various organisations involved in electricity generation and production/use of environmental technologies, for example, Pembroke Power Station, Centre for Alternative Technology, National Grid, etc.
- Your final year project provides the opportunity to specialise in a chosen area of your interest.
Course Overview
The Energy and Environmental Engineering programmes are intended to provide students with a thorough grounding in engineering principles and concepts and apply this to energy and environmental (E&E) problems.
There is a need for an E&E Engineer to develop novel and innovative solutions to help resolve current, as well as, future E&E problems.
Energy Engineering involves studying current forms of power generation as well as developing technologies in the field of power generation. These forms of energy need to be used efficiently so that we use less energy in the future while continuing to fulfil the needs of society.
Environmental Engineering is about continuing to reduce and eliminate the harmful impacts that man has on the environment. This involves looking at methods that can be used to control air, water and noise pollution while understanding the principles behind how pollution control technologies work.
In addition, students will develop knowledge in a suitable range of processes and materials. The programme will also consider environmental aspects of design and technology and will enable students to gain a range of skills relevant to a broad range of employment opportunities.
