To continue evolving as humanity and preserving the environment, there is only one path to follow: sustainability. Non-renewable resources are increasingly giving way to renewable resources in the search for a healthier and more balanced Planet. The renewable energy engineer is the professional qualified to lead production, engineering and society in a sustainable direction.
PUCRS is the first university in the South to create a Renewable Energy Engineering course. With a modern curriculum, created by professionals who are leaders in the field, our course is guided by innovation and social, scientific, cultural and economic development and prepares you to work in the areas of energy production and use, energy transport infrastructure and energy management and marketing.
Furthermore, during the course you will develop fundamental skills and competencies for a successful career that go beyond technical knowledge, such as innovative and ethical thinking in favor of the collective well-being of society. Do you identify with this and are you already imagining yourself in the day-to-day life of the course? Find out more details and come study at PUCRS.
