Renewable Energy is the study of the energy sources of the future. It involves every aspect of the study of matter and energy, and forms the basis of the science, engineering and technology of tomorrow. A career in renewable energy is both rewarding and a positive contribution to the fight against global environmental damage.
At Dundee our Renewable Energy degrees emphasise real-life engineering practice and research methodology through extensive practical projects chosen to match your career objectives. They reflect both experimental and theoretical aspects of the subject.
You will have the opportunity to get involved with our research projects as part of the Undergraduate Research Club from Level 1 onwards.

About this course
The renewable energy industry is simply exploding in size throughout the world and offers a wide variety of employment opportunities. It is a major high technology industry in the UK with a significant demand for graduates with specialist skills.
Our graduates can work confidently in any career in which a sound ability in mathematics, computing, or administrative organisation is required, on top of their skills in the science and technology of energy. So apart from the mainstream commercial activities such as wind turbines and solar cells, biomass and energy conservation, we also see our graduates taking up careers in financial management, broadcasting, with the civil service, and with the police and armed services.
MSci graduates draw on an extended project, which gives a strong foundation for those who want to continue into PhD or industrial research.
BBBB (minimum) - AABB (typical) at Higher including mathematics and a science or engineering subject (physics is preferred)
BCC (minimum) - BBB (typical) including A-Level mathematics and a science or engineering subject (physics is preferred)

Our teaching uses enhanced resources in the form of state-of-the-art laboratories and expertise in areas such as solar cells and nanotechnology, and most of the teaching takes place in small groups with easy access to staff and a personal approach to lectures, tutorials, and practical work.
How you will be assessedA variety of assessment methods is used, in some cases we will ask you to submit coursework and laboratory reports, in others you will take examinations, and sometimes we will simply ask you to discuss what you have achieved.
All BSc students undertake a research project in their final year of study, under the supervision of a member of staff. Previous projects have included:
- carbon footprints for companies/buildings
- battery technology for transport use
- integration of large scale wind power.
