Course summary

Overview

As the demand for clean energy grows, so does the demand for energy engineering graduates. This course equips you with the skills, knowledge, and industrial connections you’ll need to tackle global energy challenges and shape the future of our society.

East Anglia is a significant region for energy engineering, and you’ll see the benefits of our connections with local industry from the very start of your four-year course. You’ll have access to an array of career pathways, alongside the option of further study. You can also choose to undertake a year in industry to boost your commercial awareness and graduate with first-hand industry experience.

You’ll study an integrated programme for the first year, providing a broad insight into the incredible potential of engineering. From year two, you’ll specialise in energy engineering, building theoretical knowledge and practical skills. You can also enrich your learning experience with optional modules in the Schools of Environmental Sciences or Computing Sciences, to become a truly interdisciplinary engineer. You’ll finish out your course with a multidisciplinary design project which you’ll complete to a real-life brief. You’ll visit the site, develop designs, and present your work to professionals. Previous students have secured graduate employment based on their final-year project.

From the beginning of your Master’s in Energy Engineering course, you’ll have access to industry-standard facilities in Productivity East, including computer aided design (CAD) stations, 3D printers, subtractive manufacturing technology, and several collaborative robots. You’ll also be able to demonstrate your abilities to industry professionals through frequent events like our annual Select Partnership Scheme.

Studying energy engineering at UEA means you’ll graduate with a wide range of theoretical knowledge, practical experience and employability skills. As you transition into your career, you’ll be supported by our award-winning careers service for up to three years after graduation.

    Drama
    Hi, I'm Alexandra and I'm a 2nd year Drama and Creative Writing undergraduate student at UEA. I'm Spanish/Bolivian but have lived most of my life in Bolivia. As someone with a passion for stage and screen, I chose the Drama and Creative Writing course at UEA to develop and acquire more skills that would allow me to succeed in my career path. I am particularly passionate about scriptwriting, acting and filmmaking, so in the future, I hope I can dedicate myself to all of them. I was previously studying graphic design in Bolivia, but I decided to apply to UEA to pursue my goals; however, I still dedicate some time to it because I love it. I also enjoy photography (especially nature photography), drawing and painting, writing and dancing.

  • Ayesha

    University of East Anglia UEA
    Medicine
    I enjoy developing myself as a student, learning new skills and interacting with people. A favorite pastime of mine is reading, especially thrillers but I'm open to other genres as well. I'm originally from India, specifically from Lucknow, the city of Nawabs (and Tunday kababs), and relish trying new foods and connecting with people from different cultures through their traditions :) Having grown up in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, that is the place I call home. The links I have to all these different places has given me a broader worldview, and allowed me to experience life from a different lens.
