Course Information

Graduates from our Energy Systems Engineering Technician and Technology (ESET) programs work in exciting new careers as Renewable Energy System Designers and Clean Energy System Project Managers and Installers.  In addition, our graduates have expertise in building energy management and building energy systems, where they find rewarding employment as Energy Managers and Energy Auditors.

Our many successful graduates illustrate how every year, businesses, governments and consumers are becoming more concerned with the financial and environmental costs of energy usage. Our ESET graduates are filling the growing needs of this marketplace for capable people with the knowledge and skills to design and implement renewable energy systems as well as to audit energy use in commercial and residential buildings and make recommendations to reduce energy demand and cost.

Here is a sampling of the many job titles our ESET graduates have:

  • Green Building Project Associate - Halsall Associates
  • Solar Installation Manager - Powersave
  • Assistant Energy Manager - 3M Canada
  • Solar Division Manager - Greenside Electric
  • Energy Consultant - Lateral Energy Solutions
  • Energy Systems Engineering Technologist - Quantum Energy
  • Energy Management Associate - Utilities Kingston
  • Building Automation Service Technician - Siemens Building Technologies
  • Founder and Co-owner,  KES Energy Management

Our St. Lawrence College facilities include some of Canada’s most complete laboratories for students to learn how to size, design, and install solar photovoltaic, solar thermal and other sustainable energy systems, for both grid connected and off-grid applications.  St. Lawrence College also has a 250kW grid connected rooftop solar array where we walk the talk on the value of renewable energy systems.

In addition to our regular program coursework, over the past few years, we have been able to leverage a variety of programs to provide work experience for students in Texas, Jamaica, and within our own  College Sustainable Energy Applied Research Centre (SEARC).  Many students have also gone on to Bachelor’s degree programs at a variety of Universities in Canada and abroad.
