Master of Energy
Institution: University of Auckland
Qualification: Master of Energy
Length of Programme: 2 semesters
Commencement: July 2014
All students complete two core courses that give an overview of business (ENERGY 721) and technology (ENERGY 722) issues relevant to energy. Students have a choice of completing a 90 point research thesis or a smaller 45 point research project. In both cases the project scope may include economic, environmental, regulatory and business issues, as well as technical matters. Students who choose the smaller 45 point research project also take an additional three 15 point elective courses. The courses allow the student to concentrate on a particular energy form such as wind or geothermal, to take additional business courses, or to focus on sustainability/policy issues. Students may begin in the PGCert (Geothermal) program in semester 2 and progress to the MEnergy program in semester 1 of the following year if they gain a B average in their PGCert courses.
