The world faces major challenges in meeting the current and future demand for sustainable and secure energy supply and use. The one-year Energy Technologies MPhil programme is designed for graduates who want to help tackle these problems by developing practical engineering solutions, and who want to learn more about the fundamental science and the technologies involved in energy utilisation, electricity generation, energy efficiency, and alternative energy.
Energy is a huge topic, of very significant current scientific, technological, environmental, political and financial interest. The complexity and rapid change associated with energy technologies necessitate engineers with a very good grasp of the fundamentals, with exposure and a good understanding of all main energy sources and technologies, but also with specialisation in a few areas. This is the prevailing philosophy behind this MPhil programme, fully consistent with the prevailing philosophy and structure of the University of Cambridge Department of Engineering as a whole. |
