1 Cave Hill Campus TAILORED COURSES Faculty of Science and Technology Department of Computer Science, Mathematics and Physics Renewable Energy Management 2 or 3 week block-taught courses could be the best fit for you! 1
2 INTRODUCTION With the worldwide cost of energy continuing to rise, energy use is set to play an ever more critical part in the region s economy. Due to the high regional cost of energy, some renewable energy and energy efficient technologies are already economically viable. Face-to-face teaching of graduate level renewable energy courses at the Cave Hill campus As the drive towards the use of cleaner, more sustainable energy technologies gathers pace, it makes sense for companies and institutions across the region to employ or develop in-house energy specialists. Cave Hill s Renewable Energy Management MSc programme has been offered full-time (15 months) and part-time (27 months) since Throughout this period it has drawn on regional and international expertise to build a strong teaching capacity in the field of sustainable energy use. In an effort to widen the access to our extensive and ever-increasing knowledge base, we are now offering our carefully tailored MSc programme courses on an individual basis, allowing busy professionals a flexible alternative to full-time on-campus study. This document describes the courses that are available, when they will become available, the cost, the eligibility requirements and the registration process.
