The Master in Global Energy Transition and Governance is targeted at students and young professionals with a bachelor degree and is open to all academic disciplines.
It aims to give a deep understanding of the complexity of the current energy transformations in Europe and worldwide.
With its unique, multidisciplinary approach, the programme analyses the links between the different levels of energy governance, from an international to a local level, offering problem-focused learning at the crossroads of theory and practice.
The one-year Master programme (three terms) welcomes participants from all five continents and takes place in two study locations: Nice and Berlin. The programme includes a study trip to Brussels as well as several field trips to relevant energy sites in France and Germany.
