This program is designed to give graduates the theoretical and practical engineering skills required to design, develop, install, commission, maintain, repair and/or decommission renewable/sustainable energy technology solutions. It addresses a rapidly evolving energy market, in which governments and corporations are adjusting their priorities to reflect environmental imperatives. The clean energy industry is forecast to expand significantly over the next decade as governments and corporations set renewable energy targets and work towards the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. The program covers the range of technologies across the renewable energy spectrum, with students choosing to specialise in either electrical or mechanical/civil engineering. At the end of the program, graduates will be eligible to articulate into the third year of the Bachelor of Engineering Technology (Renewable Energy) offered at the University of Newcastle.
