Three-year Bachelor of Science Course

Forms of energy are used in a variety of ways in industry, domestic households and transportation, so energy is now as important a part of our daily lives as water. Increasingly, attention is paid to sustainable use of energy, without imposing long-term strains on coming generations. Cross-linked training in the foundations of and current issues around energy technology takes account of this situation. One increasingly important concern is to reduce CO₂ emissions responsible for the greenhouse effect. In pursuit of this, energy-saving opportunities are pursued and increasing use is made of regenerative energies. Though fossil fuels will still have to be used for a long time to come, efforts are made to reduce CO₂ emissions by increasing efficiency and by capturing the CO₂ their use generates and storing it underground. These processes in particular make it essential for energy engineering and environmental engineering activities to be closely linked.
