The purpose of the Ph.D. in Energy Studies is to provide qualifying students with an in-depth understanding and integrated knowledge of advanced applicable theory in the field of energy studies.

Provide the knowledge, techniques and systemic vision required to produce scientifically relevant contributions involving the design, analysis, control and operation of systems that support energy, material and information flows, in particular regarding, conversion transport, storage and use of energy, taking into account the availability of natural resources and their relation to climate change, including the study of their mitigation and resilience factors for adaptation to climate change. The main characteristic of this doctoral program is its holistic view, integrating areas of engineering and environment with those of economics and management, providing an analysis of the energy systems in the perspective of sustainable development. It is also an objective of the doctoral program to gradually qualify students for the autonomous development of research and development work by integrating them into research teams with a special emphasis on the preparation and elaboration of the thesis.

The PhD program in Energy Science and Engineering is designed for students who want to deeply explore energy technologies, policy, and sustainability. It emphasizes interdisciplinary research, combini...
