可持续能源的地球科学

The mission of this programme is to develop the technical
knowledge and skills required for graduating students to work in
interdisciplinary careers that ensure the sustainable supply of energy
and technology deployed to reduce atmospheric carbon by:supplying energy from the subsurfacestoring energy in the subsurfacelong-term atmospheric carbon storagestoring waste from energy streamsdeveloping environmentally-sustainable solutions for sustainable future energy supplyThis education and training will be facilitated by integration of
fundamental theoretical knowledge, field-, laboratory and computational
tools, through blended learning, tutorials, seminars, field trip and
group work.In this programme we train next-generation geoscientists in the
skills needed to ensure the long-term, sustainable supply and storage of
low-carbon energy. Graduates of this programme will be able to
demonstrate a broad understanding of all subsurface geoscience
applications, alongside an in-depth technical knowledge of sedimentary
geoscience and geophysics, rock mechanics, fluid flow and pore
evolution.This will equip students for employment within the energy sector,
including in the fields of energy, heat and hydrogen storage, 
geothermal energy, geological carbon sequestration, gas/compressed air
storage, environmental governance of hydrocarbon extraction, and nuclear
waste disposal. The programme content has been designed following
consultation with key players in the energy industry and the programme
will be supported by an industrial advisory board from a diverse range
of sub-surface disciplines/energy providers.
