Energy Management Specialization
The specialization in energy management is designed to complement the student’s major in preparing them for careers in energy and natural resource companies, power generation companies, financial institutions, government, and non-profit groups. Students will develop a real-world foundation in the areas of industry structure and operations, energy economics and financial analysis, energy and natural resource law, and the role of global energy markets and policy. The curriculum reflects the current global energy mix, focusing primarily on hydrocarbons, but reflects the growing role of renewables in the years to come.
