Undergraduate education

The Department of Energy and Technology offers undergraduate courses at bachelor's and master's level. 

We offer independent courses and courses within the Master's program in energy systems and the Master's program in environmental and water technology. 

Would you like to know more? Read below and discover what we can offer you!

Are you going to write a thesis or independent work at the Department of Energy and Technology?

The term Independent work is used for courses at pure SLU programs, while thesis is used at the engineering programs we arrange together with Uppsala University. Independent work is also the name for the bachelor's thesis that is carried out in year 3 within the Energy Systems Program.

Theses within the engineering programs follow the procedures used at Uppsala University, for the Energy Systems Program and the Environment and Water Program, respectively.

To read more about thesis and independent work at the Department, please use the Swedish version of this page. 

If you want to pick up your exam or re-exam for courses belonging to the Department of Energy and Technology, you are welcome to our exam collection room (at the entrance to MVM building) on ​​Tuesdays between 12 and 13 p.m. We do not have digital exam collection.

NOTE! If your exam applies to courses that belong to other departments, please ask the course coordinator what applies to their courses.
