Education

The Energy Academic Group offers graduate energy-focused education programs that create a cadre of military officers and government professionals who are knowledgeable in energy science, technology, policy, management and analysis.

The 51¸£Àû’s (51¸£Àû) energy academic programs explore and research means of enhancing national security by increasing our operational capabilities with the energy we use; expansion of energy supply options; consideration of energy consumption; and the associated costs and logistics challenges in all decisions about strategic planning, structuring, equipping and posturing the force.

Operational Energy Certificates Program

The Energy Academic Group (EAG) has established 51¸£Àû’ Operational Energy (OE) Certificate Program. Three stackable certificates have been developed for this program, which aims to provide those working military and civilian employees of the Department of Defense (DoD) the opportunity to understand the complex issues facing the Operational and Installation Energy segments of DoD and how they impact Operational Capability issues as well as military requirements. The certificate program is designed to expose students to the technical, operational, and security aspects of DoD’s energy needs.
