Renewable Energy Technology A.A.S.

The program stresses learning by doing, and you will follow up lectures with lab work that applies concepts to actual practice.

You will take classes that prepare you to install, operate, troubleshoot and maintain a broad array of renewable energy systems, including grid-tied solar photovoltaic, solar thermal, wind, heat pump, micro hydroelectric and bioenergy systems. The list of required courses can be found in the college catalog and the typical schedule of classes is provided as a PDF under the Related Resources menu tab.

The SUNY Morrisville campus will serve as your first real-world work setting. You will learn using full-scale system components in our distinctive facilities, including our new Agricultural and Clean Energy Technology (ACET) Center featuring state-of-the-art wind, solar, hydro, biofuels, thermal energy and tower climbing labs, as well as on-campus outdoor climbing towers, operating wind turbines and solar arrays, and bioenergy crop plantations.

As a graduate, you will be prepared to enter the job market as an entry-level installer, operator, or maintenance technician for renewable energy technologies, while joining an emerging workforce backed by dedicated efforts at the state and federal level to create a cleaner energy system for future generations.

Should you choose to continue your studies, you can transfer seamlessly into our Bachelor of Technology (B.Tech.) degree program in renewable energy.
