MBA Renewables qualifies highly skilled professionals<br />

to strengthen the sustainability<br />

business. The next course starting in October<br />

2013 is now open again for applications.<br />

While more and more countries increase the share of renewable<br />

energies in their total energy mix, they also face the challenge<br />

of an always higher pressure to reduce costs of technologies<br />

and applications. It is therefore more important for companies to<br />

apply efficient management strategies and develop innovative business models. This leads to<br />

an increased demand of highly qualified personnel with management skills and know-how of<br />

renewable technologies. The sector offers excellent job opportunities not only for engineers, but<br />

also for graduates of economics, law, political science, natural science and other disciplines.<br />

MBA Renewables, the only Master of Business Administration with a focus on renewable<br />

energies, which can be studied online, offers a broad mix of qualifications needed in<br />

management of renewable energy companies. It focuses on passing on the German experience<br />

to an international audience. MBA Renewables is directed towards international students. Since<br />

its start in 2011, students from all five continents and 30 different countries have registered.<br />

They study online and on a part-time basis alongside their jobs. To facilitate the exchange of<br />

experiences beyond online forums and virtual group-work, part of the course is an on-campus<br />

time of two weeks in Germany after the first study semester.<br />

The study programme is offered by the Berlin based Beuth University of Applied Sciences in<br />

cooperation with Renewables Academy (RENAC).<br />
