Renewable Energy is transforming the world from a reliance on fossil fuels to sustainable energy systems. Researchers at UC are involved in renewable energy projects in Pacific Island nations and in South East Asia, as well as Aotearoa New Zealand-based work like transitioning the Burnham Army Camp to more sustainable energy sources. Renewable Energy is a multidisciplinary subject with relevant courses taught by all departments within the College of Engineering | Te Rāngai Pūkaha, but the programme is based in the Department of Civil and Natural Resources Engineering. Students will learn about the variety of renewable energy resources and conversion technologies, system modelling techniques, challenges to sustainability, and practical solutions to common issues.
