This course aims to set a foundation for the entire MSES programme by providing conceptual and practical knowledge on both renewable and non-renewable energy systems for exploitation through appropriate technologies. Starting from a discussion of the importance of energy and the fundamentals of energy sources (renewable and non-renewable), the course explores different types of energy systems, with emphasis on renewable energy in the electricity supply industry, culminating in concepts of demand-side management and energy efficiency.
LEARNING OUTCOMES:
Upon successful completion of the course, students will, through assessment activities, show evidence of their ability to:
· Describe relationships between Energy Systems and the Sustainable Development Goals
· Discuss the fundamental features of energy sources (both renewable and non-renewable) and their associated environmental impacts.
· Describe the Namibian electrical power system and the role of renewable energy technologies in resolving the World Energy Council’s energy trilemma.
· Assessment techniques for renewable energy resources.
· Explain the concepts of power system demand-side management and energy efficiency
This course contents which when exhausted will improve students' soft skills i.e. those additional skills that enable engineers to meaningfully contribute to the advancement of society/community they find themselves. Acquiring such skills will ensure the amicable co-existence between Human to Human and Human to the Environment in a ever changing and challenging world of the 21st century.
ENGINEERING CHEMISTRY 124(ACH521S) is a core course to be completed in the second semester. The overall aim of this course is to equip students with an understanding of fundamental principles of physical, organic, and inorganic chemistry. This will enable students to develop an ability to observe, analyze and interpret information objectively and to make rational decisions when solving chemistry-related problems.

This course introduces students to a set of methods of solving differential equations. Students are learning the techniques of solving first order Ordinary Differential equations and second order ordinary linear differential equations. They further go to engage in solving ordinary differential equations by means of Laplace transforms, Fourier Series, Numerical Methods, as well as application of Matrices.
This covers the plane kinematics and dynamics of particles and systems of particles.
Statics deals with the equilibrium of bodies under action forces. Its principles are foundational to most fields of engineering. This is a core course to be completed in the first semester and is a prerequisite for many subsequent courses.
