EDT Headstart Course

The World is facing an energy crisis. By 2030, our global power demand will have increased by 60%, but with the Earth's natural resources running out, where will we source this form? With rising demand and diminishing supply, we need to look to alternative methods of generating sustainable power.

This Headstart course will educate students on the generation of sustainable energy exploring different methods of energy generation, including wind and wave power. Practical exercises will test your problem solving and team-working skills, whilst the accompanying topical lectures will introduce you to the theory and issues engineers in this field face. Visits to local sites will show you the practical applications of what you have learned on the course.
