Hide-This BSc Honours Degree in a new and emerging field of engineering. Energy management is the process of monitoring, controlling, and conserving energy in a building or organisation. The programme aims to prepare graduates to meet the current engineering, energy and environmental challenges facing us on a national and international level. The programme will focus on building energy systems, building energy assessment, energy policy, facilities management, renewable technologies, taking account of security of supply, competitiveness of our energy supply and the impact of climate change and CO2 emissions. Advanced entry is offered to those who have completed the level 7 ordinary degree in Electrical Services Engineering or equivalent. The programme will be delivered through lectures, assignments and tutorials and consists of taught modules and a 15 ECTS dissertation.

Students will have a keen interest in how things work, energy markets, improving energy efficiency and in problem solving. There is plenty of scope for exercising innovation, creativity and flair in addressing our current energy issues. Green building technology, efficient use of energy and sustainability are all areas that are addressed on the programme.

Learning Outcome
Programme aims: The aims of the programme are to:

Provide a level 8 programme that integrates engineering principles, energy, environment and management.

Provide coherent progression routes for Electrical Services

Engineering graduates that are also relevant to the needs of industry.

Address a national and international need to produce professionals with the knowledge, skills and competence to contribute to protection of the environment by incorporating renewable and energy efficient technologies in engineering building design

To produce graduates who have the knowledge, skills and competence to develop, manage and implement a complex energy policy for a variety of commercial and industrial energy users in an ethical and socially conscious way.

Hide-This qualification will give graduates the opportunity of entering the Energy Industry which has been identified as one of the major growth areas in this century where there will be interesting and well paid jobs.

Electrical Services Technicians enjoy a very varied, interesting and well paid work environment. There are so many aspects in which you can develop an interest and subsequently specialise. These can include: working in an electrical design office, for an electrical contractor, as engineering systems support in the manufacturing sector, perhaps in technical sales support, project management, or in the provision of industrial services. The work invariably involves both office based and site/location activity.

Students who graduate through the above route will receive a Bachelor of Science Degree in Electrical Services and Energy Management (NQAI Level 8). This is an accredited award that is recognised world wide.
