Master of Science in Energy Systems

The Master of Science, MS, in Energy Systems degree program integrates the technology side of energy systems development with the financial planning needed to effectively implement these new technologies. The Master’s in Energy Systems creates a high-level signature, multidisciplinary graduate program for the engineer or technical business major who is pursuing (or would like to pursue) an industrial or public planning based career.The program’s mission is to educate students in current and future energy systems technologies, to integrate energy-related technologies with the economics and financial considerations required to implement them, and to develop leadership and decision-making skills to implement energy systems in either the private or public sectors of the global market. The program will expose students to a combination of academic and corporate experience in energy systems.An ability to identify, formulate, and solve complex engineeringscientificquantitative problems.An ability to explain and apply engineering design principles, as appropriate to the program’s educational objectives.An ability to produce solutions that meet specified end-user needs with consideration of public health, safety, and welfare, as well as global, cultural, social, environmental, and economic factors.An ability to recognize the engineering toolsprinciples needed for decision making andor policy planning that will deliver minimally polluting, energy-efficient systems to the global market.

Enrolling graduate and professional program students are required to submit to Northeastern University (NU) their official transcripts including evidence of the completion of the bachelor’s degree and the date of degree conferral within 30 days from the start of their first academic term.
