The Energy & Environment profile of the Master of Science in Engineering trains a professional figure capable of using new technologies in the energy sector to meet the challenges of climate change.

The MSE study profile in Energy and Environment provides in-depth knowledge and skills in the field of environmental technology and industrial process engineering.

 Competences:
  • Analysis, description, modelling and simulation of complex technical processes in a systematic and disciplined manner;
  • Development of efficient and resource-friendly systems and processes;
  • Ability to work in interdisciplinary teams, lead large-scale projects and perform management tasks in energy, process and environmental technology.

Educational perspectives
 
The Master of Science in Engineering is the highest degree conferred by a university of applied sciences in Switzerland in the fields of engineering and IT.

MSE graduates can continue their education with a PhD at Swiss or international universities and polytechnics, as well as through continuing education courses:
  • Master of Advanced Studies (MAS)
  • Diploma of Advanced Studies (DAS)
  • Certificate of Advanced Studies (CAS)
Professional perspectives

MSE graduates with an Energy and Environment profile are able to comprehensively cover Energy and Environment issues:
  • Generation, storage and conversion of conventional and sustainable energy;
  • Energy distribution and demand management.
  
They will also be sensitive to the efficient use of natural resources and environmental protection and may find employment in industry, the public sector or services.

The planning of the study programme is carried out by the students with the support of the advisor assigned at the beginning of the course.

Theoretical modules
