RES | the School for Renewable Energy Science in Iceland is now accepting applications for its one year (90 ECTS credits) international M.Sc. Degree Program in Renewable Energy Science, for the academic year 2010-11.
The RES Program will in February 2010 complete its second year of operation when 38 masters’ degree students from twelve different countries will graduate. The students are specializing in four different fields, namely Geothermal Energy, Biofuels & Bioenergy, Fuel Cell Systems & Hydrogen, and Energy Systems. Next year a specialization in Hydropower will be added in collaboration with Iceland’s National Power Company (Landsvirkjun).
RES is a private institution of higher learning, a graduate school, affiliated with the University of Iceland in Reykjavik and the University of Akureyri in North-Iceland.
RES is seeking limited number of highly qualified students to enroll in the M.Sc. Degree Program. A number of Scholarship Awards are also available for outstanding students, including half or full tuition fee waiver.
We would appreciate if you could kindly discuss our M.Sc. Degree Program details and scholarship opportunities with some of your top students interested in pursuing a degree in renewable energy from Iceland. Currently 80% of primary energy in Iceland comes from renewable energy sources, highest of any nation. Essentially 100% of electricity generation in Iceland is already from renewable energy sources. Therefore Iceland is a good example for other nations to follow on their route to a more sustainable energy future.
