    Distance Learning PhD Programs in Renewable Energy

    The finite availability of fossil fuels and environmental pressures drives students in the field of renewable energy to discover and implement new technologies to harness the power of the wind, sun, and water, as well as geothermal and bioenergy options.

    The PhD is a doctoral degree, specifically called a "doctor of philosophy" degree. This is misleading because PhD holders are not necessarily philosophers (unless they earned their degree in philosophy!). That said, PhD recipients are able to engage in thought experiments, reason about problems, and solve problems in sophisticated ways.

    Online or distance learning refers to the use of electronic media and information and communication technologies (ICT) in education. With online learning, one can access education at any time and from any location with an available internet connection.
