Diploma of Basic Studies "Site-Adapted Transformation Technologies in the Global South"
The Diploma of Basic Studies is a program, that offers students worldwide the opportunity to acquire interdisciplinary technical knowledge to address challenges in the Global South more effectively and sustainably. It follows a modular educational approach, enabling countries in the Global South to better navigate technological transformations. Key focus areas include wind and solar energy, water and wastewater management, agriculture, biogas, and energy storage.
Upon completing 30 credits—equivalent to 900 hours of study—students will earn a Diploma of Basic Studies from the University of Kassel. Designed as a part-time program, it primarily targets development aid workers, including local talents from Global South countries who are eager to contribute to their nation's transformation, equipping them with technological insights to enhance the sustainability of development initiatives.

Master of Science "Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency"
The objective of the international Master of Science (M.Sc.) program REMENA is to educate German and international students in measures for a sustainable energy sector where the students are expected to have working experience in a corresponding area and hold a Bachelor degree. The latter can be obtained in different disciplines, e.g. law, economic, social, engineering or natural sciences. Applicants can be accepted for the REMENA program independently of their nationality.
Three universities – the University of Kassel, Germany, the University of Monastir, Tunisia, and the Jawaharlal Nehru Technological University Hyderabad (JNTUH), India – in cooperation with institutions and companies in the renewable energy sector have combined their expertise to design an attractive Master program to guarantee an excellent education for young experts to meet the challenges of sustainable energy supply and renewable energy and energy efficiency topics. An even broader range of topics is offered by REMENA University Network (RUN) partners for optional exchange semesters including the University of Sfax (US), Tunisia, and the German University in Cairo (GUC), Egypt.
REMENA graduates will be experts in different disciplines for future projects in the energy sector with a special focus on international cooperation and will receive a double-degree from the University of Kassel and the JNTUH OR from the University of Kassel and the University of Monastir.
