What career fields can you work in?
An increasing global demand for energy and the effect of global warming require new concepts for a sustainable energy supply. Renewable energy technologies will play a key role in meeting these challenges. The engineering of and dealing with renewable energy systems have already generated a booming branch and a hundred billion euro market worldwide. As more and more countries are going to enforce the use of renewable energy, there is an increasing demand for experts and engineers worldwide. In Germany there already about 280,000 employees in the renewable energy business, with an annual employment growth rate of 10 per cent.
The new postgraduate degree programme 'Renewable Energy Systems – Environmental and Process Engineering' provides in-depth training for engineers working in industry, planning offices, organisations and research.
The typical scope of work for graduates is:
- Engineering (development, planning, design, execution) of solar thermal systems, photovoltaic systems, biogas, biomass to liquid and wind energy systems as well as downstream systems for energy transformation and distribution
- Research and development of certain components and systems for renewable energy plants
- Engineering of hybrid systems for autonomous energy supply
- Integration of renewable energy systems into utility grids
- Operation and servicing of renewable energy plants
- Assessment and management of renewable energy projects
