| Location: | North Terrace Campus |
| Duration: | 4 years
(full-time or
part-time |
| Degree/Award: | Bachelor |
Sustainable Energy Engineering enables development of long-term solutions to meet the world’s rapidly growing energy needs using alternative energy sources such as wind, solar and biomass as well as sustainable energy production from existing sources such as coal and gas. Students choose from three streams: chemical, electrical and mechanical. Each stream provides a strong technical and practical foundation in its own specialisation, together with a substantial component of cross-disciplinary studies covering specialised topics in sustainable energy.
Sustainable Engineering (Mechanical) concerns the design of systems that use heat and fluid flow to generate energy. It includes the assessment of aerodynamics, structural loads, vibrations, thermal power and cooling cycles, combustion and automatic control. In addition to considering more sustainable, traditional forms of energy production, the program is concerned with all possible renewable energy forms including wind, wave, tidal, solar, geothermal, hydro, pumped storage and biomass. Sustainable Engineering (Mechanical) is suitable for students interested in designing sustainable and renewable energy systems and in solving problems related to sustainability.
