Renewable Energy
- Area/Department: Civil and Environmental Engineering
Renewable energy is an important topic that cuts across academic disciplines. The University offers two programs in renewable energy, open to students in all fields, that are designed to complement their chosen major by exposing them to crucial technical, economic and social issues relevant to renewable energy. These interdisciplinary programs aim to help students apply the knowledge gained in their major program to the nationally important issues of alternative and renewable energy.
The minor in renewable energy is open to all university undergraduates while the online graduate certificate is designed for individuals who hold a bachelor's degree in engineering, management or a related field.
