The Supergen Offshore Renewable Energy (ORE) Hub has launched a series of highly-specialised masterclasses designed by world-leading researchers on topics across offshore renewable energy. The 1 or 2-day masterclasses will be held at our core partner universities and are tailored for those developing their careers within the offshore renewable energy industry as well as academia, providing access to some of the UK's most innovative offshore renewable energy testing facilities and assets.
The series of 10 Masterclasses is a limited programme which started in 2024 and continues until 2027. This is a unique opportunity to enrol in training for innovative practices, techniques and solutions from those working at the forefront of ORE research.

Educators have a vital role to play in inspiring the next generation of engineers to dream big and exceed their expectations
