Ready to build an efficient, innovative energy future?

To meet the goal of limiting temperature rise to max. 2°C, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) advises cutting human-caused CO2 emissions by about 45% compared to 2010 levels by 2030. Ultimately, emissions need to reach “net zero” by 2050. The key to a successful energy transition is to view the entire value chain as an integrated system. This requires highly skilled professionals with advanced scientific knowledge, strategic thinking skills, and the ability to take a comprehensive approach to sustainable energy systems.

EPFL and HES-SO are jointly proposing a new Master of Advanced Studies (MAS) in Sustainable Energy Systems Engineering. The programme aims to prepare individuals for driving innovation, fostering renewable energy adoption, and implementing sustainable systems and practices across various industries through an interdisciplinary curriculum that integrates engineering, environmental science, and decision-making science.

Eager to learn more about the program? We invite you to join us for a series of webinars exploring Industry Challenges and potential CO2 Emission Solutions.
