In 2006, global energy consumption reached an estimated 471 exajoules, comparable to approximately 80 billion barrels of oil. With increasing energy needs and growing concerns about greenhouse gas effects, the question arises: what will power our future? Students specializing in Sustainable Energy Systems gain insights into the scale of Earth's energy challenges and develop skills to create more sustainable solutions. This specialization is available to Mechanical and Chemical Engineering students, enhancing standard engineering education with energy-centric classes like ChE 686: Environmental Sustainability Case Studies, ME 433: Advanced Energy Solutions, CEE 567 Energy Infrastructure Systems, and EAS 574: Sustainable Energy Systems. To contextualize designs ecologically, students supplement their technical training with courses such as EAS 527: Energy Markets and Policy and EAS 580: Environmental Impact Assessment. What distinguishes Sustainable Energy Systems students is their dual expertise in both the technical aspects of sustainable energy and the broader societal, ecological, and economic implications.

Qualification Requirements

Undergraduate and/or graduate record (including GPA/Class rank, reputation of previous school) Nearly all admitted graduate students have a minimum combined GRE verbal and quantitative score of 300, and a minimum of 4.0 GRE analytical writing score. We do not have a minimum GPA requirement, however, most applicants who are offered admission have GPAs above 3.5.

BS Degree in Chemical engineering (or equivalent)
Engineering degree other than chemical: Students with engineering degrees in other disciplines typically take 2-3 core undergraduate classes (ChE 330, ChE 341, ChE 342, ChE 344) in addition to those required for MS or PhD degree. Our core undergraduate classes include thermodynamics, heat and mass transfer, fluids, and reaction engineering.
MS in Chemical engineering from another institution: May not apply to masters program.

A score of 250 on the computer-based version (CBT), 100 on the iBT, or 7.0 on the IELTS is required for international students except those with a degree from a university that teaches exclusively in English.
