Sustainable Renewable Energy Technologies (SuRE)

The programme consists of the following modules: Renewable Energy Laboratories (6 CP) Renewable Heat and Programming Tools (6 CP) Energy Systems and Management (6 CP) Photovoltaics (6 CP) Wind Energy (6 CP) Sustainability of Renewable Energy (6 CP) Renewable Energy Systems Laboratory - Electives (6 CP) Advanced Topics in Renewable Energy (6 CP) One specialisation in: Wind Energy, Solar Energy, or System Integration of Renewable Energy (12 CP) Renewable Energy Project (6 CP) Internship (6 CP) Resilient Energy Systems (6 CP) Selected RE Technologies (6 CP) Complementary Topics and Transferable Skills (6CP) Thesis module (30 CP) The 24-month programme consists of four semesters. In the first semester (October to January), the core courses (including lectures, seminars, labs, and an excursion) provide a solid foundation in the scientific principles of renewable energy technologies as well as the basics in energy economics and energy meteorology. In the second semester (April to July), you will deepen your knowledge in your chosen specialisation, sustainability of RE systems and RE systems labs. In the third semester (October to January), you will conduct an elaborate case study and are asked to do an external internship (approx. 200 hours), which will help you gain knowledge of real-life examples. Additionally, students will learn about Resilient Energy Systems and other RE Technologies and complimentary topics. The last semester (April to July) is dedicated to the final thesis project. The subject of the final thesis evolves from the participant's individual interests, the laboratory courses and the experience gained during the external training, which should be related to the participant's future professional occupation.
