Energy for Smart Cities - MS 14
[Master ]

What does it mean?

Transforming cities to meet social, economic, engineering and environmental challenges needs specialists with interdisciplinary training to address in integrated way energy-environment-water issues for the implementation of solutions and technologies that lead to a more viable, sustainable, resilient and efficient city. Within the MS14 master’s program you will gain knowledge in smart electricity distribution (Smart Distribution Systems); production and distribution of thermal energy; drinking water treatment and distribution/wastewater treatment (Smart Water); energy recovery and storage; smart buildings; the impact of climate change on cities. Thus, as graduate of the MS14 master program, you will be able to competitively work in managerial, research, consulting, design or technical assistance activities in the field of energy and environmental engineering, nationally and worldwide.


What will you learn about?

  • Smart thermal and electric energy production and distribution systems in cities, GIS and SCADA applications in cities’ energy;
  • Monitoring and control in water distribution network;
  • Monitoring air quality;
