WVU Energy Focused Degrees – Morgantown Campus
Electrical Engineering
Electrical engineers are the tool builders of the information age. They apply principles from math and physics to build systems and components for a wide range of products, from cell phones to automobiles to airplanes.
Electrical Engineering
The MS program is intended for students who have an undergraduate degree in electrical engineering, computer engineering, or a closely related discipline, and wish to broaden their depth of understanding in one or more areas of the field.
Electrical Engineering
The PhD program should be considered by those with superior academic achievement and who desire to pursue a career of research or teaching.
Energy Law and Sustainable Development
The goal of the JD/LLM in Energy and Sustainable Development Law is to give our law students added expertise in a dynamic and vital legal field. The JD/LLM is a fast-track program that can be completed in 3-1/2 years instead of the traditional four years (which also means saving a semester's tuition).
Industrial Engineering
Students in the MSIE program will learn to master modern and classical methodologies in their area of concentration, oral and written communication skills to bridge the gap between society and businesses, and professional ethics as applied to their field.
Mining Engineering
This major addresses society's needs for mineral resources and the management, health, safety and environmental impacts associated with producing and processing these resources in a sustainable and responsible way.
