Department of Engineering  Objectives and Overview  Objectives
and Overview  Energy is a huge topic, of very significant and
current scientific, technological, environmental, political and
financial interest. The complexity and rapid change associated
with energy technologies necessitates engineers with a very good
grasp of the fundamentals, with exposure and good understanding
of all main energy sources and technologies, but also with
specialization in a few areas. This is the prevailing philosophy
behind this MPhil, fully consistent with the prevailing
philosophy and structure of the Engineering Department as a
whole.  The educational target of the MPhil in Energy
Technologies is to communicate the breadth of energy
technologies and the underpinning science. The objectives of the
course are:    1. To teach the fundamental sciences behind
technologies involved in energy utilization, electricity
generation, energy efficiency, and alternative energy.   2. To
develop graduates with an overall view of energy eng
