Overview

Career Highlights

Offshore wind energy plays a critical role in the world’s transition to an electricity-based, clean energy economy. Standing at the intersection of infrastructure, manufacturing, and ocean science, offshore wind engineers work effectively with a wide range of partners to deliver technical excellence in the context of evolving markets, policies, and regulations.

As the wind energy industry continues to rapidly grow, your career possibilities as an offshore wind energy engineer will grow with it. Renewable energy is a key piece of the “green economy” puzzle—and wind power (which provides thousands of jobs in the United States every year) is the fastest growing sector in renewable energy.

Our faculty offer perspectives rooted in research and industry experience, so you’ll receive world-class training in wind policy, technical applications, and project management to prepare you for jobs in global industry, academia, and the public sector. This Offshore Wind Energy Engineering program is offered at Tufts University.
