Short courses in renewable energy sources with Stellebosch University
Stellenbosch University has been awarded the responsibility to act as the hub of a Postgraduate Programme in Renewable and Sustainable Energy Studies by the South African National Energy Research Institute (SANERI), a division of the Central Energy Fund (CEF). The hub will be supplemented by a number of research chairs forming the spokes of a hub and spoke model.
Stellenbosch University presents a number of short courses in renewable and sustainable energy studies to enhance the capacity in the country to implement projects in this area.
These courses form part of the taught master programmes but each module’s week of contact is also registered with ECSA so that participants from industry can typically earn 4.0 CPD points in category 1.
The overall objective of this initiative is to develop and enhance national capacity in renewable and sustainable energy in support of accelerated and shared economic growth within the area of sustainable energy. This will be achieved by building the human resource capacity, create and disseminate knowledge, and lastly to stimulate innovation and enterprise in the field of renewable and sustainable energy.
