Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) / Bachelor of Engineering Science - Photovoltaics and Solar Energy - Dual Degree

Program Overview

This double degree gives students the opportunity to develop their skills and knowledge in two areas the major area of interest leading to a Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) degree, plus an additional area leading to a Bachelor of Engineering Science degree. Students have a pathway to enhance their professional opportunities through developing cross-disciplinary skills and knowledge in a five-year program.

There are a select number of discipline combinations available in this double degree: Chemical Engineering, Civil Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Environmental Engineering, Mechatronic Engineering, Mining Engineering, Petroleum Engineering, Photovoltaics and Solar Energy, Renewable Energy Engineering.


Major: Photovoltaics and Solar Energy
The stream includes training in technology development, manufacturing, quality control, reliability and life-cycle analysis, cell interconnection and encapsulation, a range of solar cell applications, system design, maintenance and fault diagnosis, marketing, policy development and the use of other renewable energy technologies. Emphasis is placed on gaining hands-on experience of working with solar energy devices, modules and systems.

Innovative teaching techniques have been developed to enhance the learning environment including the 'Virtual Production Line' and 'Virtual World Solar Car Challenge'. UNSW academics in the photovoltaic field have been consistently ranked amongst the leaders worldwide through international peer review. This team has held the world record for silicon solar cell efficiencies for decades and were responsible for developing the most successfully commercialized new photovoltaic technology internationally throughout the same period. From 2006 onwards we have seen an explosion of interest in the School's technologies from major industry players all around the world.
