This new programme builds strong foundations in energy systems and markets, while developing practical, applied skills to understand how volatility, security, resilience and environmental impact shape business decisions. Graduates gain the analytical and communication capabilities needed to evaluate options, understand value-chain implications and support energy-transition initiatives across organisations and sectors.
Unlike technology-led programmes, this bachelor introduces energy transition as a core business challenge rather than a purely technical one. Students develop the foundations to understand how security, volatility, supply chains, digital tools and climate impact shape organisational decisions, and how transition roadmaps can support operational continuity and competitiveness within real-world business contexts.
One-to-one mentoring and personalised learning pathways from faculty members who are actively engaged in industry. The opportunity to choose between three capstone routes to generate a positive social and economic impact in the communities students live.

UBI’s bachelor programmes build strong foundations and applied skills for early-career roles. Build the fundamentals of energy systems and markets—then learn how volatility, security, resilience, and environmental impact shape business decisions. The programme develops the analytical and communication skills to support energy transition initiatives across organisations and sectors.
In addition to the effects on global warming, the world has entered a new energy era defined by volatility, supply constraints, geopolitical risk, and rapid technological change. In this context, the energy transition is not only about decarbonisation; it is also about keeping economies, companies, and communities running. UBI’s Strategic Energy Transition bachelor prepares professionals to lead decisions that strengthen energy security and resilience while accelerating the shift to cleaner, more efficient, and more reliable systems.
As the global energy transition accelerates, organisations are redefining their technologies, strategies, operations and value creation models, reshaping entire industries. This growing systemic, regulatory and technological complexity demands a new generation of professionals able to work across disciplines—combining strategic thinking, technological insight and leadership capability to make informed decisions and drive organisational change.
In this context, UBI’s bachelor’s programme promotes a multidisciplinary approach with a strong emphasis on applying technology, innovation and strategic thinking to energy transition, allowing future professionals to have an immediate impact on business models, navigate the energy transition, and contribute t build sustainable competitive advantage over the long term.
