M.Sc. Energy Science and Engineering

Since the winter semester 2012/2013, TU Darmstadt has offered a Master’s degree in Energy Science and Engineering – interdisciplinary, unique, and innovative!
Students can specialise on the theme of energy in this interdisciplinary degree. This includes both the generation of renewable energies and also themes such as the efficient use of conventional energy sources. The degree also focuses on social science issues. Eight departments at TU Darmstadt – including the Department of Architecture – were involved in the development of this degree. The university has thus expanded its range of courses to include an innovative and future-oriented degree that is not only highly attractive to students but also unique in this form in Germany.
