M.Eng. in Renewable Energy and Environment Engineering

  • Engineering Postgraduate Studies |
  • Language of Study: English

Program Description

* Some Courses of M.Eng. in Renewable Energy and Environment Engineeringhave been updated thanks to EACEA funding as part of the WESET project (www.weset-project.eu)

Overview

According to the annual report of the Egyptian National Renewable Energy report for 2008/2009, the Ministry of Electricity and Energy is striving for doubling the renewable energy share of energy production to 20% by the year 2020. No direct transition from conventional methods to renewable energy resources is anticipated due to social and economical factors. Moreover, new technologies evolving for emission abatement are also conceived and investigated. Thus fossil fuel combustion will continue to be the dominant share through the following two decades. Hence, this project responds to the current and pressing demands of the labor and energy sectors of having competent and well trained engineers in the fields of energy and environment.

The project aims mainly to establish of a new master program leading to an Engineering degree in the fields of energy and environmental management. This will support the labor and energy sectors of well qualified professional engineers in the renewable energy discipline. Moreover, among our target, the project will establish specially-tailored training programs for engineers working in this vital sector.

The master/training program can be subdivided into three major modules namely renewable energy resources, low emission power plants and environmental management.

Program Preparation and Establishment

The program preparing and establishing is funded by the European Union (through TEMPUS program). The program is prepared in cooperation of several universities, companies and scientific research centers from many Arabian and European countries (Egypt, Spain, England and Bulgaria). The program is conducted by college of Engineering, Arab Academy for Science, Technology and Maritime Transport (AASTM) with the coordination of Staffordshire (UK), Oviedo (Spain), UCTM (Bulgaria), Ain shams, Helwan and Nile universities.

Target Groups

According to earlier conducted survey, this master program will be targeting engineers from different inter disciplinarians such as:
  • Marine Engineers
  • Electrical Engineers
  • Mechanical Enginers

Program Detailed Structure

The proposed Master’s Program is developed following the ECTS (European Credit Transfer System) with equivalence in the Egyptian Credit Hour System to support effective. Hence the proposed Master’s program is developed as an integrated program composed of:
  1. Courses representing 67.5 ECTS credits = 27 Egyptian Credit Hours
  2. Case Study Application representing 15 ECTS credits = 6 Egyptian Credit Hours
This leads to a complete Master’s program of 82.5 ECTS = 33 Egyptian Credit Hours.

The master program is subdivided into three major modules namely renewable energy \ resources, low emission power plants and environmental management Studies.

The renewable energy resources module

It includes the studies of solar, wind, wave, and tidal as well as geothermal energy.

The low emission power plants module

It devotes itself towards the study of pollutant reduction technologies applied to conventional power plants. The module includes different technologies for carbon capture and storage. The module targets to trigger the awareness of engineers (master students) and/or trainees of the international legislations/protocols concerning the environment and pollutant emissions.

The environmental management studies module

It focuses on the mechanical and biological treatment of solid waste as well as design of solid waste treatment plants. The module covers waste water treatment of urban areas and industrial processes drainage. Air quality control is also covered within this module where air pollutant measurements and sampling are focused as well as flue gas treatments.
