| The energy market is rapidly changing. Climate protection, concerns about the security of energy supply, highly volatile energy prices and increased legislation are just a few examples that will add pressure on companies and authorities, especially to comply with the requirements of a carbon-constrained world. Environmental pressure to implement renewable energy supplies and energy saving measures will only increase in the coming decades.
Maastricht University School of Business and Economics has developed a course in cooperation with Ecofys in which professionals will be enabled to get familiar with these challenges, and moreover, learn how to adequately respond as a firm, as an institution and as a policy maker. The course directly links the knowledge of energy and economic sector with management skills, enhancing the ability to implement sustainable solutions into energy sector. Companies and authorities will experience an increasing need to consult energy professionals.
This course qualifies you to be one of those professionals with good career opportunities in the energy sector.
