The project websites listed here have been constructed by students attending our MSc in Sustainable Engineering: Renewable Energy Systems and the Environment course, and, since 2009-10, the MSc in Sustainable Engineering: Offshore Renewable Energy course. Each project is pursued under the supervision of a course tutor with the final submission carefully checked before release. However, given the volume and complexity of the material presented, occasional errors or omissions may occur.
