Overview
Overview
Energy Engineering addresses the practical and technological needs of the global energy transition, including energy efficiency, reduction of fossil fuel use for energy generation, new geo-energy opportunities such as geothermal energy, hydrogen systems (generation-transport-storage), systems engineering, environmental compliance, sustainable energy, and conventional renewable energy technologies. The major builds on Curtin’s global positioning as a recognised leader in research, education and engagement for Energy and Resources Transition with special emphasis on stewardship of Air, Water and Land. Upon conclusion of the course graduates will be equipped to drive forward Energy in Transition technologies globally and make direct contributions towards the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs) and Australia’s goal of Net-Zero Carbon emissions by 2050. In this double degree, students study a parallel science major in Physics, in which they will conduct physical science experiments and solve real-world problems analytically or computationally. Study of physics elevates student understanding of energy systems function and opportunities, and creates a broad knowledge and skills base applicable to a wide range of careers.
