Academia is waking up to the need to train specialists in green architecture, chemistry and engineering. Dean Millar founded the worlds first ever BSc course in Renewable Energy
2、 at Exeter University after working as an industry consultant. He said: “A lot of panies were plaining that there was a lack of bright young people suitably trained to work in the renewables business.” Now his course has around 90 students learning the ins and outs of biomass, tidal, solar and offsh
3、ore wind power. Their career prospects are incredibly bright. Employment opportunities are not just limited to the energy sector, but segue into the regulatory and, increasingly, investment sectors as well. “The big boys are moving in. The returns to be had 第 2 页 are significant, especially in terms
4、 of wind development,” said Millar. “Financial firms need expertise across the board so they can make sensible investment decisions.” Students on York Universitys Masters course in Green Chemistry are ideally placed to take advantage of the growing demand in industry for graduates with waste minimiz
5、ation skills. Professor James Clark is founder of Yorks Green Chemistry Centre for Excellence and the worlds leading green chemistry journal, Green Chemistry. He said: “We are now talking to producers of automobiles, electronics, furniture and pharmaceuticals, people who need to use chemistry but do
6、nt think of themselves as chemists.” As waste production legislation bees increasingly strict, the traditional emphasis on making as much of a chemical as possible is shifting towards minimizing the waste that process creates. “A lot of chemicals are made from petroleum, but we are developing sustai
7、nable ways to make carbon, typically from biomass such as dead plants and trees,” said professor Clark. 第 3 页 All of last years graduates quickly found employment, some receiving multiple job o offers in a variety of different fields. Li Li, a 26-year-old Chinese postgraduate student, graduated from
8、 York in 20XX. She said: “I hadnt heard about green chemistry in China. It was a new area and I was curious. Now the government back home needs people who know about these principles.” Deep in the heart of Wales, 400 students at the Centre for Alternative Technologys (CAT) Graduate School of the Env
9、ironment are busy designing and building everything from high insulation wood housing to wind power turbines. With energy costs rising, building firms are increasingly looking to minimize the energy wasted heating and lighting homes, a service CAT students are well-equipped to provide. A new institu
10、te is being built to meet the 第 4 页 burgeoning demand for places and a distance learning facility will be launched next September so foreign students can plete CAT courses from home. The expertise being taught on these courses is essential to a continually expanding range of panies and government authorities. Yet there is a larger goal at stake; the students are at the forefront of the battle against climate change. In the words of Dean Millar, “If were going to save the planet, we need to start turning these people out in big numbers.”
