Educational Programs in Renewable Energy Technology

The following is a list of Colleges and Universities currently offering programs in renewable energy technology. The list may not be complete since degrees and programs relating to sustainability are being added by many institutions to meet the demands of the green economy. (For a list of sustainable agriculture programs, click here).

Because many of these schools offer multiple programs, ranging from certificates and 2-year degrees, to undergraduate and graduate programs, I will not list the individual programs offered. You will need to follow the link to their website and search it to discover exactly what they are offering.

I will be posting reviews of many of these programs in the coming weeks, so check back often.
