Renewable Energy Systems and the Environment
Offshore Renewable Energy
Part B Project Web Sites

 

The project websites listed here have been constructed by students attending our MSc in Renewable Energy Systems and the Environment (formerly Energy Systems and the Environment), and MSc in Offshore Renewable Energy and have been submitted as part of the requirements for progress to Part C of this course. Each project is pursued under the supervision of a course tutor with the final submission carefully checked before release. However, given the volume and complexity of the material presented, occasional errors or omissions may occur. We therefore welcome any feedback which should be directed to esru@strath.ac.uk.
