Sustainable Energy Engineering and Management
SEEM
SEEM
Requirement / Registration
| Admission Requirements | The Sustainable Energy Engineering and Management (SEEM) programme is open to all applicants having the requisite technical background knowledge: First-degree holders of renewable energy technologies, electrical, environmental, mechanical and energy engineering, sciences, agriculture, and professionals with industry experience interested in pursuing postgraduate diploma, masters and Ph.D. degrees in sustainable energy management. |
| Masters Programme: To be eligible for admission into the Master’s Research Degree programme, candidates must be graduates of this University or any other University recognised by the Academic Board and shall normally have obtained a minimum of Second Class (Lower Division) degree in the relevant field (eg. renewable energy engineering, electrical engineering, environmental engineering, mechanical engineering, agricultural engineering, etc). Excellent candidates may be admitted into a research master’s programme in the first instance and later upgraded into the Ph.D. prograame after successful completion of the course work and upon recommendations from the Department and School Boards. For non-research Masters degree candidates, holders of Bachelors degree with a minimum of three (3) years of working experience may be considered for admission. Holders of postgraduate diploma certificates with excellent classification may be admitted to non-research Masters programmes. The Departments may require further selection by examination and/or interview. |
|
| Admission and Selection: The admission and selection process to the Sustainable Energy Engineering and Management programme shall reflect the academic rigor and preparation needed for this programme. Meeting the minimum qualifications for this programme does not guarantee admission. Candidates are encouraged to achieve well beyond the minimum qualifications to enhance their chances of selection. The Energy and Petroleum Engineering Department at UENR uses a holistic approach in selecting candidates for admission. Applicants are thoroughly reviewed to determine the full spectrum of their academic and personal achievements through examination and/or interview |
|
| NB: Special Admissions A candidate, who does not satisfy the full rigour of academic requirement of a programme but is otherwise adjudged suitable (professional and work experience), may be admitted. |

Description / Content
The MSc. Sustainable Energy Engineering and Management is run in the Department of Energy and Petroleum Engineering, under the School of Engineering. The programme aims to produce graduates with advanced knowledge and skills in energy engineering and management; this will be by providing high-level teaching and research, in an interdisciplinary approach, to deliver a set of skills and competencies in sustainable energy systems. All these are gear towards enabling students to participate in the successful introduction, appraisal, and management of sustainable energy systems including aspects of efficiency, availability, safety, and evaluation
Content
The content of this programme covers 23 courses in all of which 6 are electives and 3 non-scoring while the remaining are mandatory courses. Below is the structural breakdown of the programme
Elective Courses:
- Sustainable Energy Resources and Technologies
- Modelling and Analysis of Sustainable Energy Systems
- Waste to Energy
- Power Grid Analysis
- Computational Fluid dynamics (CFD)
- Application of GIS and Remote Sensing in Energy Systems
- Life Cycle Assessment
Core Courses:
- Renewable Energy
- Advanced Mathematical Tools and Simulation
- Energy Systems – Analysis, Design and Optimization
- Energy Operations and Supply Chain Management
- Energy and Environmental Sustainability
- Energy Policy, Economics and Markets
- Statistics and Research Methods
- Energy Efficiency and Management
- Entrepreneurship, Project Management and Ethics
- Master Plan-Integrated Project
- MSc. Sustainable Energy Engineering and Management Project
NB: Students are required to complete all core courses plus one elective course every semester. All energy seminars and field trips are classified as non-scoring courses
Future Opportunities
The Master’s programme has a strong focus on research that is accompanied by an excellent international reputation. This is especially present in the second year, where students work side by side with university researchers, thus gaining unique insights and experience in modern scientific methodologies. Engineers with expertise in sustainable energy management are multi-disciplinarily trained professionals. They are able to pursue a successful career not only in academics but also in an industrial environment.
