MSc Global Energy Technologies and Systems

... United Kingdom
... University of Birmingham

Course Overview

This course provides both the understanding of how energy systems are changing, and what technologies will be important in the future. A challenge-driven programme sits alongside internationally-recognised innovation at the Birmingham Energy Institute that spans fundamental research through to industrial application.

General Eligibility

You should have, or expect to obtain, a 2:1 Honours degree from a UK academic institution (or an equivalent overseas qualification) in engineering or physical sciences.

Consideration may also be given to excellent applicants with degrees in life sciences and economics where these included an adequate component of mathematics.

Further consideration may be given to candidates with extensive, relevant post-degree experience.

Some content on this course will be delivered by Social Sciences and so emphasis on writing proficiency will be more pronounced.

Part Time Work Details

20 Hours of Work permit weekly for international students.

Language Requirement

  • There is a requirement to pass the TOEFL test with a minimum overall score of 80 and at least 21 in the writing and speaking components, and at least 19 in other components.

    Alternatively an IELTS overall mark of 6.0 with at least 5.5 in all bands, and 6.0 in writing. We also accept the online version of PTE.
