The ME Energy Systems programme prepares engineers for work in designing and developing future energy systems and aims to deepen understanding of the interactions between these systems and the environment and energy policy, taking account of economic factors. The scope of the programme includes analysis of global energy systems, use of finite natural resources and the impact on climate. It focuses on renewable and other energy sources such as wind, wave, nuclear and solar power and on the conversion, storage and transmission by electrical and other means. The programme will also address the efficient use of energy in buildings, transport and industrial processes, together with the study of other topics such as carbon sequestration.
Candidates who have already completed a 4-year professional engineering bachelor’s degree may be eligible for recognition of prior learning, enabling them to complete this programme over 12 months.
The scope of the programme includes analysis of global energy systems, use of finite natural resources and the impact on climate. It focuses on use of fossil fuels and on renewable and other energy sources such as wind, wave, nuclear and solar power and on the conversion, storage and transmission by electrical and other means. The programme also addresses the efficient use of energy in buildings, transport and industrial processes, together with the study of other topics such as carbon capture and sequestration.
About This Course

Significant numbers of graduates have also decided to pursue further study to PhD level, at UCD and elsewhere.
The Professional Work Experience (PWE) module is incorporated into the two-year Masters of Engineering Programme and is designed to integrate a student’s academic and career interests with practical work experience for a 6-8 month period.
The module provides students with the perfect opportunity to gain increased experience and understanding of their chosen field, assess where their strengths and weaknesses lie and maximise their knowledge of the available career possibilities. The practical skills acquired during this placement will give graduates a competitive advantage when applying for positions upon graduation.

UCD is strongly committed to advancing the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), embedding sustainability in teaching, research, operations, and community engagement. Sustainability principles are integrated into this programme, ensuring students graduate equipped to address global challenges. UCD’s leadership in this area is internationally recognised, ranking 49th globally and 1st in Ireland in the QS World University Rankings for Sustainability 2024. UCD also leads impactful research in areas such as climate action, clean energy, and social equity, supported by a comprehensive Sustainability Strategy focused on reducing emissions, enhancing biodiversity, and fostering a sustainable campus culture.
Here are the SDGs which align more visibly with this programme:
Graduate Profile - Kaitlyn Moran, Environmental Engineer, IN2 Engineering
"My goal in joining the ME Energy Systems Engineering course was to gain a more global understanding of energy: how it’s created, how it’s used, and what are the biggest barriers to sustainable development. Throughout my two years in the programme, I was able to delve deeper into these topics and more. In addition to interesting classes, the internship allowed me to explore a new facet (for me) of energy systems: buildings. Working as part of a team to deliver projects, I gained technical expertise as well as expanded professional development. The internship experience helped me immensely in securing a job prior to graduation. I greatly enjoyed my time at UCD and highly recommend this programme to anyone interested in energy!"
