Overview
The program encompasses both basic research and the development of technologies and innovations.
Key facts
The curricula includes a mandatory subject aiming to build a common basis among students from different disciplines as well as a number of electives that provide insight into a variety of more specialized important topics.
The program is offered by the Institute as a whole but it is centred around the Research and Innovation activities of two of its four Research Centres; The Climate and Atmosphere Research Centre (CARE-C), and the Energy, Environment and Water Research Centre (EEWRC) both internationally recognized centres addressing important interdisciplinary scientific and technological issues on regional problems of global significance. As such, the program will benefit from the participation of EEWRC and CARE-C in large European Research Infrastructures such as EU-ACTRIS (on climate-related atmospheric observations) and EU-SOLARIS (on Concentrated Solar Thermal technologies). It offers international exposure through the active participation of leading world experts from collaborating top research institutions such as the Max Planck Institute for Chemistry (Germany), National Observatory of Athens (Greece), Atomic Energy Commission (CEA, France), and regional universities such as National and Kapodistrian University of Athens (Greece) and Saint Joseph University of Beirut (Lebanon).
The Cyprus Institute's Energy, Environment and Atmospheric Sciences programme will teach you more about this topic.
Accreditation
