A minimum requirement for admission to the M.Sc. Program in Renewable Energy Science is a B.Sc. degree with top grades in engineering or physical/natural sciences (chemistry, physics, geology and related fields). Students will have to demonstrate a good understanding of English, both in reading and writing. An admission committee will review student applications, transcripts, and interview students for the final selection.
The selection process will be competitive as a max. of only 50-70 students will be accepted to the school each year from our foreign partner universities, at least during the first few years of operation. The majority of the students will be coming from eastern, central and southern European countries on full scholarships (i.e. EFTA support). Some of the students have already completed their Masters degrees, and are seeking a second master in renewable energy science and/or are using the coursework and research in Iceland as part of their Ph.D. studies at their home institution.
