Student Destinations

There’s a growing skills shortage in the field of energy and power systems management. Global recruiters Brunel reported, in 2021, that the majority of the sector struggles with “an aging workforce and lack of skilled staff” – so, whether you’re shaping yourself for entry to this industry or updating your knowledge of current design practice and analytical methods, you’ll find this accredited Master’s helps you stand out as someone the sector needs.

You’ll graduate with knowledge of industry-standard hardware and simulation packages, like Simulink. You’ll have made a network of contacts through commercially-engaged lecturers, visiting speakers and a global cohort of fellow students. And you’ll have been studying concepts, theories and methods that our industrial advisory board recognises as central to current and future best practice in the power and energy sector.
