What qualifications do I need for a career in alternative energy?
Asked by riel1687
Do I need to go back to school and get a graduate degree? I am currently a well-paid web developer and Java programmer, and currently have only a bachelors degree. Do companies working with alternative energy need such people, or would I have to go back to school to get involved?

Best Answer:
A lot of the successful people in this field are mavericks. More like the old Thomas Edison types than the "graduate degree" guys. So don't worry about the education. Just start applying and only apply when the supervisor or owner is on-site. They need your skills..
A:
Either a Civil or Electrical engineering degree would be very beneficial. My husband is a Civil Engineer and works with companies building wind farms and connecting them to the power grid.
