Bachelor of Energy Policy and Governance
Course Overview
Delivered by the London School of Oil and Gas Management, the Bachelor of Energy Policy and Governance is a full honours programme built inside Harold International College of London and calibrated to the working reality of the UK oil, gas and energy sector. Structured as a UK Level 6 honours qualification, typically 3 years, the programme runs across 3 years and is aligned with UK further and higher education expectations for energy policy and governance inside the energy economics, finance & hse area. Study is available on-campus in central London, online, or by distance learning, with the same weekly seminar structure, the same coursework schedule and the same named programme-tutor support across every mode of study.
By the end of the Bachelor of Energy Policy and Governance, you will enter graduate-track roles with a full honours credential and step into progression into an LSOGM MSc, MEng or MBA-style Master programme. The syllabus is built around contracts and negotiation, contracts and negotiation and adjacent topics such as HSE management, using live scenarios from integrated energy majors, trading houses, energy consultancies, HSE advisory firms, ESG desks and regulatory bodies to sharpen how you read data, brief stakeholders and act inside the operating rhythm of the sector. Every taught unit closes with a reflection task so you can trace your capability growth week by week, and assessment uses foundational modules, electives, a year-two industry placement and a final-year capstone or dissertation so what you can do is evidenced through practice, not only examined through recall.
