Renewable & Sustainable Energy Engineering (with Foundation Year), BEng (Hons)

Do you have the ability to study for a degree, but don’t have the necessary formal qualifications for the Honours Degree Course? This foundation year degree course could be for you.

We're preparing the next generation of energy engineers to tackle society's pressing issue: the future energy supply security. On this course you’ll explore the generation, transmission, storage and uses of renewable energy. This will prepare you to pursue a rewarding and sustainable career in engineering.

As scientists make dire predictions about the catastrophic impact that climate change is likely to have on future generations, governments and industries are seeking new ways of powering our homes, cities and economies without devastating our world.

You’ll be studying in a university fully committed to sustainability and ethical practices. We are recognised both globally and nationally by professional bodies and we rank as a Gold Tier University in the Green Universities Report 2022.

We have been recognised by the Carbon Literacy Project. The project recently awarded us with a Bronze Carbon Literate Organisation status. We are one of only 13 Universities worldwide to achieve this status.

After you have successfully completed your foundation year, you can progress to our BEng (Hons) Renewable and Sustainable Energy Engineering course, or a related degree. On the full course you can tailor the degree to suit your interests. Whether it’s:

• Designing and installing renewable energy systems such as wind or solar
• Working with nuclear power
• Designing tomorrow’s carbon capture technology
• Providing future advice on energy efficiency and low carbon technology to business and industry
