Renewable Energy Engineering (REE)

Minor Courses

Program Faculty

Renewable energy is a growing industry that needs engineers who can improve the efficiency of current technologies and develop new ways to produce clean affordable energy. Alfred University is now offering a minor in Renewable Energy Engineering and is working to add a major to the program in Fall 2012 (pending approval from the New York State Department of Education).

The Renewable Energy Engineering program at Alfred University is dedicated to the study and practice of energy systems for a sustainable environment. Our mission is to produce the next generation of engineers and scientists who will develop and perfect renewable energy systems, make improvements on energy efficiency, and advance science and engineering to create a more sustainable future for our planet. Students of the REE program will gain a foundation of mechanical and electrical engineering, as well as business, and be able to apply this knowledge to the generation, delivery, and use of energy from renewable sources.

The Renewable Energy Minor is a great addition to any of Alfred University's current engineering minors. Undecided Engineering students entering Fall 2011 will be able to easily transition to a Renewable Energy Engineering major, once it receives state approval.
