Annotation
The outstanding feature of the new Geo-Energy Systems degree course is the application of traditional engineering disciplines (such as electrical engineering, mechanical engineering and process engineering) to processes in the geological subsurface and the coupling of different sectors of the energy industry. A key focus is on the sustainable use of resources. The Institute of Subsurface Energy Systems guarantees individual supervision with numerous opportunities for participation in current research and development work as well as interesting activities alongside studies and industrial work placements through the extensive network of companies. In addition, students are prepared for an international professional environment through a gradual increase in the use of English.
