Bachelor of Science [B.S] [Energy Systems Engineering] From University of Wyoming

What is Energy Systems Engineering?

Energy Systems Engineering is a relatively new undergraduate degree offering launched by the Department of Mechanical Engineering in 2009.? The program is truly unique and unlike any other engineering degree in the country.?

ESE engineers may choose training in alternative and environmentally-friendly energy conversion systems to complement their education in traditional technologies that will continue to play an important role for the foreseeable future.

Although the discipline of mechanical engineering has historically been responsible for the design of energy conversion cycles and equipment, issues outside the conventional realms of engineering are increasingly important to address as new and improved energy conversion systems are implemented. The engineer trained in Energy Systems will be better equipped than traditional Mechanical Engineers to deal with the environmental, legal, political and economic aspects of new energy projects.
