Lo que descubrirás
The curriculum includes renewable technologies, energy storage, hydrogen and grid integration, with further options across areas such as wind, solar and energy data. A 30-ECTS thesis provides space to investigate a substantial problem.
When comparing energy courses, consider whether you are most drawn to equipment, system design, data or the decisions behind investment. Ask about recent thesis topics and the technical preparation that helps students get started.
Solicitud
Applicants need a university qualification that permits master’s entry under UPC’s general admissions routes. The programme specifies B2 English. Contact the course team about how your previous subjects fit the engineering content and whether any additional preparation would be useful.
Planning your time and budget
Teaching is face to face in the afternoons at ETSEIB. The published September start pattern does not mean applications are currently open: pre-enrolment was closed when checked.
UPC gives approximate tuition totals by fee category, with extra charges listed separately. Budget for the full two-year stay and use our Guía de estudio de Barcelona to compare housing and travel options.
