Programme Description

The project contents include power plant and power grid, energy utilization in construction and transportation industries, renewable energy and future technology, offshore wind and hydrogen energy economy, geothermal systems, smart grid, clean carbon-based fuel, energy technology innovation, renewable energy policy, future urban design, etc. At the end of the project, students will submit project reports and present their achievements.

Who can join the programme?

  • High school students
  • University students
  • Students interested in sustainable development, nuclear energy, wind energy, solar energy, biomass energy, oil and gas studies, environmental protection, thermal and energy engineering, or related fields

The programme can certainly provide excellent preparation for the IB Extended Essay (EE). It helps students understand the research process, develop research questions, and practice academic writing. If students follow our instructor-led programme and produce strong work, the outcome will be a high-quality paper that can be used as preparation for the IB Extended Essay.

Published Research Paper Option

Once students have completed the final draft of their papers, they may choose to submit their work to international academic journals indexed by CPCI or EI. We provide guidance and support throughout the submission process for these indexed publications.

The publication fee is £690 per research article, as determined by the journal. Once an article is accepted, it typically becomes searchable on Google and on the journal’s platform approximately seven months after the publication offer is made.
