This master’s program is an engineering degree with a strong technical focus, preparing students to become interdisciplinary leaders pioneering solutions in energy, climate, and sustainability. All students will complete one introductory course and participate in a hands-on, project-based component, which can take several forms. From four breadth categories—Environment and Climate Solutions, Clean Energy Technology, Society and Policy, and Economics and Innovation—students will select one concentration (three courses) and take one course in each of the remaining categories.
