Hey Everyone,
I am a junior Physics major who would like to pursue a career in Renewable Energy Engineering. I am interested in the part of the development in which I would be designing the software, machine and every other component that goes along with the actual device (whether it be for solar panels, wind turbines, water turbines, etc...). I am posting as my college does not offer many engineering classes that are outside of robotics or what is needed to study Material Science. Because of this I may not be aware of some software's I could be using to help me further my own individual research/studies on the topic.
As for relative studies in the topic, I have learned a few computer languages (java, python, c++, mathematica) if there is any other language that is used quite frequently in the field, I would love to know now so I can teach myself or possible see if my university offers a class in the language. For math classes I have taken, all 3 calc classes, Ordinary Differential Equations, Math Methods in a Physical Science, and Discrete math 1. If I should study any other math courses I would like to know in order to fit them in before I graduate.
I am sorry if this is not clear, so I will reiterate my main points. Is there any software used in the development of the machines that I can familiarize myself with, or if there are any computer languages I should learn before entering the workforce, or any math classes I should study before I graduate.
