Energy and Environmental Engineering

Course title

6D796000

Purpose of class

This course aims to foster advanced expertise and comprehensive research capabilities in Energy and Environmental Engineering, providing a solid foundation for preparing a doctoral dissertation. Students will develop a scientific and multifaceted understanding of fundamental energy concepts, diverse energy supply and utilisation technologies, and the environmental impacts associated with energy use. Through these perspectives, the course cultivates practical problem‑solving abilities essential for contributing to the realisation of a sustainable society.
In addition, students will engage with the latest research trends and incorporate relevant interdisciplinary knowledge, enabling them to evaluate contemporary energy and environmental challenges from a broad, integrative perspective beyond their own specialisation. The course further aims to enhance skills in research planning, advanced experimental and analytical methodologies, and logical reasoning required for the effective communication of research findings. Through these learning activities, students will strengthen their capacity to disseminate their work appropriately within academic and professional communities and develop the competencies needed to become independent researchers who can contribute at an international level.
