Master of Clean Energy Technologies

These Master degree programmes in Clean Energy Technologies are aimed at producing
technically sound postgraduates to meet the growing demand in the field of Clean Energy
Technologies, such as solar photovoltaic (PV), solar thermal, hydro energy, wind, bioenergy,
etc.
These programmes intend to produce highly skilled research and development workforce
who could offer technical advice and assistance in Clean Energy Technologies, and enable
them to get familiarized with different sources of clean energy and apply the relevant
concepts in Physics, Chemistry, Engineering and other relevant fields in developing
appropriate clean energy technologies. Students shall learn the most efficient and proper
ways of energy production as they explore the relationships among work, power and energy
and would be engaged in a wide variety of individual and group projects and laboratory
activities that illustrate the inter-relationship between various forms of clean energy.
These multidisciplinary programmes will produce Master degree holders who are competent
on applications of fundamental science and operating principles related to clean energy
systems to authentic problems prevailing in the clean energy area. The industries in the field
of Energy Technologies and, Academics and Professionals in Energy / Environment /
Technology stream will also be benefited.
Admission Requirements (For Both Degree Programmes):
(a) BSc Honours degree in Chemistry / Physics
(b) BSc degree in Engineering
(c) BSc General Degree with Physics / Chemistry as a subject and at least one year of proven
research / professional experience in physical science / technology stream.
(d) Any other equivalent qualifications acceptable to the Board of Study in Physical Sciences
of Faculty of Graduate Studies, University of Jaffna.
