Bachelor of Engineering (Energy) Honours

As we transition away from fossil fuels to cleaner, more sustainable energy, there is a growing demand for skilled engineers who can facilitate these changes. To tackle global climate change, our energy sources are changing. And, as we transition away from fossil fuels to cleaner, more sustainable energy, there is a growing demand for skilled engineers who can facilitate these changes. The course equips you with the fundamental knowledge required for an energy transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy as well storage and CO2 - sequestration of large-scale subsurface gas, such as natural gas and hydrogen. Youll also develop knowledge and skills for professional engineering practice, as well as a strong focus on practical problem solving, teamwork and project leadership.
