The Nordic M.Sc. Program in Innovative Sustainable Energy Engineering is offered in collaboration between the N5T universities and the University of Iceland.
The aim of the program is to give the student a detailed and thorough understanding of modern energy technologies, both from a system and a direct technical perspective. The world-wide energy situation is the starting point of the program. The innovative aspects of the Nordic energy mix will be treated from an overall perspective with options for in-depth studies of some of the modern renewable methodologies.
Program structure and contents
The program covers two full years of studies, including a M.Sc. thesis project of 30 ECTS. As a student you will be registered at one university. It is expected that you spend time at at least 2 different universities during your 2 years of studies. You must perform the M.Sc. thesis at the university where the "specialization semester" is taken. The aim of this is to have the highest available competence before the start of the M.Sc. thesis project.
