About Energy Engineering

Our modern world depends on a secure, reliable, and affordable energy supply. Energy engineering is crucial to addressing some of the most challenging issues facing the world today, namely how to:

i) reduce human impact on the climate (energy accounts for 80% of EU greenhouse gas emissions) through innovative low-carbon energy supply systems;

ii) provide a better standard of living for the world's growing population through access to sustainable and secure energy supplies.

Energy engineering graduates will be required to source, design, convert, transmit and supply useful energy to meet our present and long-term needs for electricity, mobility and heating and cooling.

If you want to help the world address the energy 'grand challenge' of the 21st century, then Ireland's first accredited degree programme in Energy Engineering is for you.
