5 Energy Engineering Course Programs

The minor curriculum is designed to prepare students for professional engineering careers in both the traditional and renewable branches of the electrical energy industry or for graduate studies in the energy field. A grade of C or better is required for all courses in the minor. The Energy Engineering program at Trine University is designed to provide students with the knowledge and skills needed to address the challenges of energy production, distribution, and sustainability. The program typically integrates principles from various engineering disciplines to prepare students for careers in the energy sector.

This course aims to develop human resources that can play an active part in the mechanical and electrical energy field through more advanced and applicable education of highly specialized subjects related to the energy sector.

Solar energy technicians, also known as Solar Photovoltaic (PVT) Technicians, are generally responsible for installing, fixing, and maintaining solar energy systems that provide solar power.

This program combines electronic, mechanical, thermal, computer, automation and photonic technologies. It provides students with a hands-on approach in which they not only learn about science and technology, but also apply what they are learning. It is the only Engineering Technologies program of its kind in Quebec. Small classes give students the opportunity to work one-on-one with faculty while exploring the rapidly evolving fields of applied engineering technologies. Courses will be given on the John Abbott campus with opportunities to use the OPTECH Montreal facilities situated at Cegep Andre-Laurendeau.

Bitterroot College Low-Pressure Boiler Operator program is a Workforce Training program that does not require college admission. Licensed Low-Pressure Boiler Engineers may run steam boilers operated not above 15 psi and water boilers operating not above 50 psi and 250° temperature.
