Geoenergy Engineering (EN)

Do you want to draw energy from the earth for the earth?

As a geoenergy engineer, you will be in demand worldwide, at large companies in the energy industry, local energy suppliers, national and international institutions, and in research and development for future energy systems. You will connect the conventional and alternative energy sectors and make a significant contribution to the energy transition. 

You can pursue a career as a Reservoir Engineer, Drilling Engineer, or Geothermal Project Developer just to name a few.

How can we supply society with sustainable energy around the clock?

In the promising Bachelor’s programme in Geoenergy Engineering, you will learn about innovative technologies and processes for the energetic and sustainable use of the subsurface. These include “clean” decarbonised fossil fuels and alternative energies such as geothermal energy and hydrogen. 

You will learn everything from the search for and characterisation of geological deposits to their development, simulation and exploitation through deep drilling, right through to the extraction and storage of energy. 
You can then specialise in the disciplines of drilling, petroleum production and reservoir engineering, or master economic and technical challenges.
