FAIR Msc

The Master of Science in Energy Poverty Alleviation Technologiesprogramme is a one-year, full-time interdisciplinary course designed to equip students with the knowledge, skills, and practical experience necessary to address energy poverty challenges globally. The programme integrates insights from engineering, social sciences, policy studies, and sustainable development to provide a comprehensive understanding of energy poverty and effective strategies for its alleviation.

To fulfil the purpose of the MSc programme, comprehensive learning materials have been developed across thirteen carefully designed modules. These materials are derived from a diverse range of sources, including text-based resources, practical demonstrations, years of teaching experience in the energy sector, cutting-edge research on energy poverty, and insights gained from laboratory experiments.
