Course Description
The European Master on Control of Renewable Energy Systems (EU-CORE) is a two-year Erasmus Mundus joint master’s programme that focuses on the modelling, control, and integration of renewable energy technologies such as wind, solar, and energy storage systems. The programme combines theoretical foundations in control engineering with practical applications in sustainable energy systems, aiming to equip students with interdisciplinary skills relevant to modern power systems and energy transition challenges. It is jointly delivered by a consortium of three European partner universities—École Centrale de Nantes (France), Brandenburg University of Technology Cottbus-Senftenberg (Germany), and University of Zagreb (Croatia)—and follows a structured mobility pathway across these institutions, concluding with a research-oriented master’s thesis that may be conducted in collaboration with academic or industrial partners.
