Energy Engineering - Indiana Institute of Technology

Energy Engineering from Indiana Institute of Technology is a Campus Bachelor Energy Management degree that prepares you for a Engineering career. The world's reliance on fossil fuels is on the brink-there is a need for engineers to pioneer new techniques for creating the energy essential for modern living. This includes finding ways to use fossil fuels more efficiently and in a way that won't harm the environment. Energy engineers also spearhead efforts to find alternative energy sources like ethanol, wind or solar power. As an energy engineer, you can have a part in providing clean, renewable, and environmentally friendly energy that will sustain future generations. Program Description Like all of Indiana Tech's engineering programs, energy engineering is academically rigorous and intensely practical. You will apply what you learn from classroom lectures to real world situations. The coursework is intense, but it needs to be because energy engineering is a career field that affects everyone in the world. That's why our class sizes are kept small so that our experienced faculty can help you succeed. When you graduate, we want you to enter the working world ready and able to make a difference. Course Description The focus of this program is to teach you the fundamental science and math relevant to energy production, distribution, and end use. You will learn to apply engineering concepts, calculations, and computer models to solve problems and analyze designs in these areas. In this program, you'll take part in sophisticated projects that span several semesters. These projects will teach you to put your classroom knowledge to practical use and prepare you to deal with the issues real-world engineering teams encounter-resource allocation, meeting milestones, and the technical hurdles common to engineering challenges. You'll also be taught the fundamentals of business and accounting-essential knowledge for engineers who often need to balance business and technical issues in order to complete a project and bring it to market. Career Opportunities Energy engineers have skills that will be useful in many different career fields, including: electric, gas and utility industries alternative energy industries product design and development teams in the transportation industries: automotive, aerospace, railways, mass-transportation, nautical, etc. energy saving activities in industrial, commercial, and government enterprises agencies and commissions involved in distributing and regulating existing energy sources, or promoting alternative energy sources View more details on Indiana Institute of Technology .
