Summary

Description
English: "The dotted green line indicates a simplified projection of when the share of university degrees in renewable energy would reach 100% if the average rate of change from 1999 to 2019 were to continue." "Fig. 4 presents the global share of educational degrees (bachelor’s, master’s, PhDs, and diplomas) in renewable energy and fossil fuels. Despite growth in the share of renewable-focused energy degrees globally from 17% in 1999 to 32% in 2019, the share of fossil fuel degrees offered was still much larger in 2019, at 68%. In terms of absolute numbers, by 2020 a total of 546 universities (out of a total of 18,400) offered 1372 fossil fuel degrees, while 247 universities offered 653 renewable energy degrees. The number of degrees in renewable energy grew significantly, from a total of 95 in 2009 to 653 in 2019. However, this number is still much smaller than the 1372 degrees in fossil fuels offered to students globally. The shift from fossil fuel to renewable energy degrees was slower than that of faculty departments, and at the current average rate, a complete shift will not be achieved until 2107."
