M.Sc. Solar Energy Engineering

The admission requirement for the M.Sc. in Solar energy Engineering are:

1. First academic degree in engineering or natural sciences (physics, chemistry, electronics, mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, material sciences, computer engineering, etc.).

2. One year of work experience after graduation. As a proof please prepare a letter signed by your employee confirming your position and duration of your work”. Click here (opens in a new tab) for a letter template.

3. Proof of English proficiency; minimum equal to B2 according to CEFR.

(You can find the list of accepted English language certificates under the question “What do I need to prove my English proficiency?”)

Students holding a previous degree (BSc) which was taught entirely in English (must be mentioned in the official transcript).

Note: Admission with an alternative bachelor’s degree will be considered if the necessary mathematical and technical expertise is proved (e.g., relevant industrial experience).

The M.Sc. in Solar Energy Engineering is suitable for highly qualified students who already have an academic background in STEM subjects (physics, chemistry, electronics, mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, material sciences, computer engineering, etc.).

Specialists with a production or sales background in solar energy systems or even beginners in the solar energy field can gain in-depth knowledge from this program. This program is also suitable for teachers, researchers, and committed young scientists who want to further specialise in their topics. For prospective students who want to expand their knowledge and skills in the solar energy field, this program is the right choice.

The Certificates in Solar Energy Engineering have less strict background requirements. However, for most of them a reasonable knowledge on STEM subjects is ideal. Our Certificates on Crystalline Silicon Photovoltaic (opens in a new tab) and Solar Thermal Energy Technology (opens in a new tab) still require some knowledge on Physics, Maths and Engineering but they could be handled by students who do not possess deep knowledge in those areas.
