Energy is an essential component of our existence. The cost, availability and efficient utilisation of energy are increasingly important in the strategies of governments world-wide, as they realise that the 'raw material' for most of the energy used today has a finite life, and the potential for renewable energy increases.
Large industries and small households alike depend on a reliable provision of energy. Energy includes not only electricity, but also heat and transportation.
A First or Second Class Honours Degree in an engineering discipline or in the physical or chemical sciences. The degree can be from a British or overseas university. Different degrees, together with relevant industrial experience, will be considered.
