Overview

Climate change and economic drivers mean there is a strong move toward renewable energy from wind, wave, and tidal sources - and consequently an increased demand for Power System Engineers.

This course has been designed in collaboration with industry experts and has a strong emphasis on practical experience. It provides a broad education in electrical, mechanical, and electronic engineering, alongside specialist modules in power engineering and power electronics.

Graduate prospects

Graduates from this course are likely to be sought after by global power companies such as Howden, GEC, Doosan, Babcock, National Grid, Scottish Power, and the Weir Group.

As part of our continual improvement, additional specialisation options may be added to this programme, slightly changing the degree title for 2025 entry.
