The Institute of Energy (IE), University of Dhaka was established in November 2013 by conversion of erstwhile Institute of Renewable Energy (RE, 2011). This institute is pioneer in doing research and education in the field of Renewable Energy Technology in Bangladesh since 1981, then known as Renewable Energy Research Centre (RERC). A group of highly qualified teachers and scholars of the Dhaka University has been making relentless effort to provide quality education in this field. We all strive to educate our upcoming generation, to equip them with valuable and market-oriented know-how for the country. Our goal is to open up opportunity for graduates to contribute in this field for the fourth industrial revolution at global Scale. The Institute of Energy also assist various government organization Like SREDA, IDCOL, BEPRC in technical and policy related affairs through out the year.
Development of required manpower in the field of Renewable Energy Technology would cater the ever growing demand. Since 2011, the Institute of Energy has taken up this timely step to introduce an MS program in Renewable Energy Technology (MRET) of 18 months (three semester) duration. This course is open to graduates of multiple disciplines.
We believe that this noble venture will perpetuate in materializing the goal of imparting quality education to our students.
