Qualified students in the ENEP BS degree may apply for the combined ENEP 4plus1 BS/MS degree. Whereas the traditional program for the BS degree involves four years of undergraduate work and the MS degree requires an additional two years of graduate work, the 4plus1 program allows students to earn both degrees within a five-year period. After completing 60 credits of undergraduate work towards the BS degree, well-qualified ENEP majors may be considered for the 4plus1 program.

The Energy and Environmental Policy (ENEP) degree prepares students to address Energy and Environmental initiatives from multiple disciplines. The major offers an exciting opportunity for students to prepare for academic and professional careers in the high-demand fields of clean and renewable energy, environment, sustainable development, environmental justice and climate change.

The undergraduate ENEP program provides undergraduate students with rigorous preparation for careers in this rapidly growing field. The Energy and Environmental Policy major is a cross-disciplinary program with courses in policy analysis, economics, the social and natural sciences, and engineering. It provides students with a unique opportunity to learn about the multi-faceted arena of sustainable energy and environment through internships, experiential learning and classroom learning.
