Program Overview
The procurement of sustainable energy is one of the major challenges facing humanity in the twenty-first century. The Sustainable Energy Engineering minor is therefore designed for undergraduate, engineering students who are interested in applying their knowledge of engineering fundamentals, analysis, and sustainable design principles to clean energy generation and efficient utilization. Students will gain foundational understanding of energy technologies and the energy industry, including technological, policy, and economic considerations related to sustainable energy. Completion of the minor requires 14 credit hours of core requirements plus 6 credit hours of electives. Although this minor can more easily fit the program requirements of undergraduate students pursuing engineering degrees, it is open to non-engineering students.
