Ingegneria energetica

Tuition costs 2,121 EUR per year.

The master's programme in Energy Engineering at Politecnico di BARI is taught in English over two years in Bari, Italy. Energy engineering focuses on the generation, conversion, distribution, and efficient use of energy, covering both conventional and renewable energy sources as well as the technologies and systems that support energy production and consumption. Typical subjects in this field include thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, power plant engineering, renewable energy technologies such as solar and wind power, energy storage, and energy system planning and management, alongside growing attention to energy efficiency and sustainability. Coursework generally combines theoretical study with laboratory work and system design projects, giving students practical experience in analysing and designing energy systems and infrastructure. At the master's level, students typically build on undergraduate engineering training and move toward more specialised and applied work, usually completing the programme with a thesis project focused on a specific energy system or technology. Admission is open access, and applicants are required to hold a bachelor's degree or equivalent qualification. Graduates of energy engineering programmes commonly pursue careers in power generation and utility companies, renewable energy project development, energy consulting, and industrial energy management roles focused on improving efficiency and reducing environmental impact. Others move into research and development for energy technologies or take on roles in policy and regulation related to the energy sector. The technical and analytical training developed in this field is increasingly relevant given the global shift toward renewable energy sources and more efficient energy systems. Based in Bari, in the Puglia region of southern Italy, the programme is delivered in English, making it accessible to an international student body interested in the technical and applied study of energy systems.
