A Bachelor of Science in Engineering from one of the following fields: aeronautical, chemical, energy, industrial, mechanical. The GRE score is not mandatory but it is a very valuable title: It can be provided through ETS DI code 6939.

Energy Engineering is the branch of engineering concerned with the design and the management of energy plants and their components in order to ensure the best use of the available resources with the minimum environmental impact. Energy plants are systems in which energy forms are transformed and utilized. To name a few examples: large thermal power stations, air-conditioning and climate control equipment for residences and offices, vehicle engines, airplane propellers, solar panels etc. The Laurea Magistrale (equivalent to Master of Science) in Energy Engineering prepares professionals to design, select and use the main technologies in energy transformation, to actively follow scientific improvements and to operate effectively in a competitive and multi-disciplinary industrial context, characterized by significant environmental, regulatory and safety constraints. Students will analyze broad themes as well as specific subjects for which both a rigorous methodological approach to thermodynamics and an open attitude towards related interdisciplinary topics are required.

Six available tracks
Power Generation, Green Power Systems, Energy Use and Built Environment, Oil and Gas Engineering, Energy for Development, Renewables and Environmental Sustainability.

Graduates can find employment in several sectors: in the technical area of designing, testing, running and maintaining the energy systems, like heating and cooling systems, thermal power and hydro-electric power plants, engines, oil and gas fields; in the energy management area; and in utilities and public boards that supply energy as electricity and natural gas.
