An intensive, single-semester, hands-on qualification for engineering and science graduates wishing to pursue advanced research or a career in geothermal energy.
New Zealand is a recognised leader in ensuring best practice in geothermal development. Being in Auckland – a three-hour drive away from most of the country’s high-temperature geothermal systems – makes it perfectly suited to offer postgraduate study in this field. This highly practical programme focuses on providing the necessary applied knowledge and skills required to pursue a career in the geothermal industry. It includes two field trips to the Taupo volcanic zone, and learning from our highly-regarded staff, all of whom are members of the Geothermal Institute and GNS Science.
