BEng (Hons) in Sustainable Energy Engineering in Cork Ireland | Munster Technological University

This program holds professional accreditation from the Energy Institute at the undergraduate level, though additional master's level study is necessary to fulfill the Chartered Engineer educational requirements.
Courses are taught by faculty from diverse engineering backgrounds, enabling students to comprehend the various engineering roles within the energy and sustainability sector. Organized field trips feature destinations such as: wind energy facilities, hydroelectric plants, and solar power sites.
During their final year, all students complete a significant independent research project. Typically, these projects originate from work placements and maintain direct relevance to industry needs.

A compulsory 10-week work placement occurs after the third year, though most companies extend this opportunity through the summer, potentially lasting up to six months. Placements occur within energy companies, consulting firms, government organizations like SEAI, or research teams. Evaluation includes presentations, written reports, and research project progress, with guidance from both MTU academic advisors and workplace mentors. Students also have the option to complete this placement internationally through European exchange programs.
