Subject

Environmental management

Climate change, and the need to make our energy sources as efficient as possible, is arguably one of the most important struggles faced by our generation. There has never been a more important time to understand energy. This courses offers an examination of oil and gas exploration and production, renewable energy production and the social and environment impacts of these processes.

Course content and assessments have been designed to help you develop both theoretical knowledge and understanding, as well as the practical skills to enhance your career and academic opportunities.

**Why CU London**
We offer a style of education which is flexible and designed to fit around your life, allowing you to benefit from a modern, forward-thinking higher education institution, reinforced by the quality and reputation of Coventry University. We aim to provide career-focused courses, wherever possible, coupled with placement opportunities to help prepare you for the world of work. We are dedicated to making higher education accessible and enjoyable to everyone, so we keep our fees low and made it a policy to cover one module at a time, allowing you to become a specialist in each topic before moving onto the next.

Modules

In year one you are introduced to the fundamentals of energy management including modules on the oil and gas industry, petroleum geoscience, the economic environment of business, and sustainability and the energy industry.
Students who choose to exit the course after completing the first year will be eligible to receive a Higher National Certificate (HNC) in Energy Management.

Emphasis in the second year shifts to the examination of conceptual themes and approaches present in energy systems management. You can expect to adopt a more systematic, critical and individualised approach when considering competing explanations of change in the principle areas of the subject. Modules cover topics such as climate change, energy project research planning, project management, and health and safety.
Students who choose to exit the course after completing the second year will be eligible to receive a Higher National Certificate (HND) in Energy Management.

An optional placement or sandwich year gives you the chance to gain further insight into the industry before starting your final year. In the final year you will produce a plan for an individual research project which you will then implement by yourself. This activity seeks to develop vital transferable skills beyond the academic discipline such as personal organisation, sustained motivation and critical thinking.
By successfully completing the final year, students will achieve a BSc (Hons) Energy Management.
