Course Structure

The course structure of the department has been recently (2001) revised. The main characteristics of the course structure are the following.

§  All courses fall into one of two general categories: theoretical and mixed ones (consisting of lectures and laboratory sessions).

§  All courses are ECTS accredited in direct analogy to WL of the course. The total ECTS for each semester is 30 and for the whole course is 240.

§  The course of study is structured in two directions:

Programme requirements:

The programme is structured in the following two directions: a) Energy mechanical engineering b) Energy electrical engineering

The successful follow-up of the programme ensures the necessary scientific and technological knowledge, abilities and skills of an Energy Technology Engineer, of Technological Education, so that he/she can successfully work in the fields of Energy Mechanical Engineering or Energy Electrical Engineering, depending on the chosen direction.

Students receive their degree when:

 (i) They have successfully completed their compulsory courses, mandatory electives, as well as any optional courses of the undergraduate curriculum;

(ii) Their graduation project (dissertation) has been successfully approved completed and examined;

(iii) They have successfully completed their Industrial Placement (practical training);

(iv) They have completed four (4) academic years of study, and have accumulated 240 ECTS credits from (i), (ii) and (iii) above.
