The Energy Systems degree is designed to prepare graduates for entry level positions across the entire range of energy technologies. The initial option will prepare students to work safely and effectively as operators in fossil-fueled electricity generating power plants. The curriculum will also provide a background in other types of energy production and distribution, including solar, wind, geothermal, and petroleum-based as well as emerging technologies such as ethanol, biodiesel, and clean coal technologies. Graduates will have an understanding of the financial, societal, and environmental impacts of the various energy production technologies, and will be able to operate and troubleshoot the machinery and systems used in energy production.
