Energy Engineering

Energy engineers are crucial for managing the world’s energy demands and for developing new, cleaner energy sources. One of the biggest trends in energy engineering today is decarbonization—finding a way to source power without further compromising the planet’s ecosystems and climate. The No. 1 school on this list is Texas A&M University, College Station, where the Energy Institute puts the energy transition (the electrification and decarbonization of our energy sources) first. The over 300 faculty and researchers at the institute study energy sources along with the economics and policy of energy.

The top institutions for energy engineering are:

1. Texas A&M University, College Station

2. Colorado School of Mines

3. University of Michigan
