What you will study
The MSc specialisation in Thermal Energy and Process Engineering at Aalborg University sits inside the university's Energy Engineering master's. It is taught in English and takes two years. The register description frames it as a thermal energy programme with a strong process engineering side.
What you study
The focus is thermal energy technologies and systems. The register lists the core areas as energy system modelling, heat and mass transfer, control engineering, and experimental work on components and energy system aspects.
The programme is multidisciplinary. It brings together thermal systems, fluid and aerodynamics, control engineering and electrical engineering. The syllabus aims at:
- design, modelling and optimisation of energy systems for different energy production applications
- how the components of key thermal energy conversion technologies operate and interact
- system integration, both for efficiency and for control engineering
- building and running thermal energy conversion technologies in the laboratory and in real applications
- practical implementation, including business planning and economic considerations
The first three semesters centre on thermal energy, process engineering and the scientific disciplines behind energy conversion, utilisation and transport.
