Our many successful graduates illustrate how every year, businesses, governments and consumers are becoming more concerned with the financial and environmental costs of energy usage. Our ESET graduates are filling the growing needs of this marketplace for capable people with the knowledge and skills to design and implement renewable energy systems as well as to audit energy use in commercial and residential buildings and make recommendations to reduce energy demand and cost.

Additional Information:
Programs at St. Lawrence College are delivered using a variety of instruction modes.

Program delivery can be run weekdays, weekends or evenings.

"The Energy Systems Engineering Technology (ESET) course at St. Lawrence College touched on a wide range of topics that I consistently use in my career as Energy Manager for a regional school board. As a university graduate, I found that the “hands on” labs in control systems, energy simulation software and renewable energy technologies were a valuable learning experience not typical of my previous engineering degree. The combination of energy and building technologies explored during the ESET program provides valuable insight to graduates pursuing employment not only the energy field but also in building/property management. I found that my ESET diploma gave me the edge over my competitors while job seeking."
Tyler Bell, P.Eng., LEED Green Assoc. Energy Manager
St. Lawrence College Energy Systems Technology graduate
Advanced Standing:
If you have already earned college or university credits, you may be eligible for advanced standing. Students with credits for courses that cover material substantially the same as an ESET course can apply for transfer credits. If you obtain a transfer credit for an ESET course, you may take advanced ESET courses from later semesters of the program. If you have enough transfer credits you may even be able to finish the technician program in one year. Please contact the Program Coordinator to discuss your particular situation.
Paying international tuition fees can be challenging.To help alleviate the financial pressure the International Department of St. Lawrence College is happy to offer four types of merit-based scholarships to future and current international students. |
