Bachelor of Engineering Honours in Photovoltaics and Solar Energy

4 Years On Campus Bachelors Program

University of New South Wales

Program Overview

Simply put, photovoltaic engineering uses solar radiation to create electricity. It studies the manufacture and use of solar cells, which capture and convert light from the sun to create electricity that can power virtually anything electrical. As a renewable and sustainable energy source, solar stocks are unlimited and a vital industry for humanity's future. The program includes courses in technology development, manufacturing, quality control, reliability, cell interconnection and encapsulation, policy development, life-cycle analysis, system design and more. This program has been established in response to the rapid growth in the industry with an increased need for specialised photovoltaics engineers. You could work with the manufactures of solar cells, research organisations, system design and integration companies, energy utilities and communication companies. Your career could take you to a number of exciting places.
