MSc in Advanced Energy Technologies for Buildings and Industry
This exciting new MSc programme draws on over 20 years of research expertise in the University of Hull’s Centre for Sustainable Energy Technologies (CSET), to help students develop an understanding of the innovative new approaches to energy technologies that are essential if our society is to meet global zero carbon targets.
The climate crisis has brought a growing realisation that the way we generate, store and utilise energy must change and buildings have been identified as one of the 5 key challenge areas that must be addressed through innovation, if we are to successfully reduce carbon emissions.
This MSc course will provide practical and academic experience in advanced energy technologies for building and industry application, taught by leading academics and industry experts. You will cover essential energy systems and technologies, including solar energy, sustainable heating and cooling technologies, ‘smart’ energy technologies, heat pump & heat pipe technologies as well as their sustainable application in buildings and industry. You will develop an understanding of mitigation and adaptation approaches to reducing carbon dioxide emissions with an emphasis on high efficiency energy technologies and management as well as expertise in physical and numerical modelling of advanced energy technologies.
This Masters programme has been specifically designed in close consultation with industry. CSET has developed strong international, national and regional links with both industry and academia, which strengthens its research outputs and ensures this course is based on ‘real-world’ cutting-edge technology with a global focus. CSET’s links with the Energy and Environment Institute and the Aura Innovation Centre, the University of Hull’s low carbon support centre for SMEs, provide further expertise. Students will have opportunities to link with existing research projects as well as external agencies to gain practical experience in the development of advanced energy technologies, preparing them for a career in this exciting new sector.
