BEng (Hons) Renewable Energy Engineering

The Renewable Energy Engineering BEng (Hons) degree at Solent University is a forward-thinking course that concentrates on increasing the efficiency of renewable energy resources such as solar, wind, and tidal power. This course aims to develop the engineers of the future by providing the industry-specific skills required for a career in this growing sector.Course Content: The degree is based on the practical application of skills, with a strong emphasis on laboratory work, computer-aided design, and real-world project work. The modules are designed to give students an edge in the future job market by blending traditional engineering subjects with specialist modules in renewable energy. Key Modules: Here, students in their final year have a chance to engage in a group design project and an individual research project, giving them the chance to specialise in a selected area of renewable energy. This is accompanied by other modules including Electrical Power, Control Systems Engineering, Fluid Mechanics and Thermodynamics, and Renewable Energy Systems. There is a distinct emphasis on modelling, design and assessment of renewable energy systems. Accreditations: This course is accredited by the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET) on behalf of the Engineering Council for the purposes of fully meeting the academic requirement for registration as an Incorporated Engineer and partly meeting the academic requirement for registration as a Chartered Engineer. Future Careers: This course opens a lot of career opportunities in the fields of energy management, engineering consultancy, renewable energy system design, project engineering, and mechanical, electrical and energy engineering.
