The utilities field is growing
As many people are looking for personal development in their industry, it is important that today's schools increase their offerings in order to meet the needs of individuals of all different specialties.
Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI) recently announced that it partnered with the Energy Providers Coalition for Education (EPCE) in an effort to increase its offerings in the utilities industry.
WPI will now be offering two online degrees – a master's of engineering in power systems and a master's of science in power systems management. These programs will suit students who are looking to go into either side of leadership within the utilities field.
School officials said because there has been an influx in sustainable issues, it is more important that people are trained within the utilities sector.
"WPI is proud to offer differentiated, world-class programs that educate engineers in both their pursuit of a rewarding career, and sounder engineering solutions," said Stephen P. Flavin, vice president of academic and corporate development at WPI. "The WPI and EPCE partnership is a powerful example of an alliance that supports furthering an industry, as well as the professional development of the individual. It’s an exciting venture."
