Master of Science - Energy with Entrepreneurship

Energy is an essential component of human's existence. The cost, availability and efficient utilisation of energy are increasingly important in the strategies of governments world-wide, as they realise that the 'raw material' for most of the energy used today has a finite life, and the potential for renewable energy increases.

Large industries and small households alike depend on a reliable provision of energy. Energy includes not only electricity, but also heat and transportation.

This one-year MSc degree will make students aware of the relationship between demand and supply of energy, a relationship that consists of much more than its technical component. It includes political, economic and social issues and has to be viewed on a global as well as a local scale with respect to energy provision, consumption and the costs it might incur – both in the monetary as well as environmental terms.

It is the aim of the Energy with Entrepreneurship MSc to provide a balanced, integrated degree programme which will equip the participant with the tools needed to positively influence their organisation. By developing new business strategies relevant to 'energy', or in reacting to the growing portfolio of environmental legislation. Courses are supported by industrial suppliers and users of energy, who are committed to an ethical environmental policy.
