With constant talk of an 'energy crisis' and a pressing need to implement new forms of energy creation it is an exciting and rewarding time to be thinking about a career in the energy sector. Most degrees in the field will focus on a specific aspect, such as Energy Management, Conservation or Engineering, so be sure to do some in depth research on the specific syllabus before applying. There will be a degree of overlap between each of these subjects, of course, so study in any of them should be able to open doors to multiple areas in the field upon graduation. All energy related degrees will require at least some background in the sciences and would suit applicants with a flair for these subjects.
