Description of the Programme
Bachelor of Science in Renewable Energy and Environmental Physics degree programme is designed to provide students with knowledge of “the physical laws governing the environment”. This includes observations of the interactions among the environmental variables (atmospheric and fluid), and practical use of this information particularly as it relates to alternative energy sources. The programme will propel students into the burgeoning field of renewable energy while giving them a solid base of theoretical and experimental physics. It is designed to meet the urgent demand for graduates with the knowledge and skills to address global issues of escalating energy consumption and declining resources. It emphasizes expertise in alternative and conventional energy and the scientific principles underlying the development of novel and economical means of generating and harvesting energy, while simultaneously minimizing their environmental impact. Some of the courses in the Renewable Energy and Environmental Physics include Emerging Energy Systems, Economics and Politics of the Environment; Energy, its uses and environmental impacts; Thermodynamics, Heat transfer, Solar radiation and its uses, Properties of fluids, Alternative energy sources, Photons and atoms, Photovoltaic energy, Nuclear science and technology, Environmental effects of natural and technological radiation sources, Energy management, etc.
