the expanding need of storage and processing, with no clear deceleration in
sight (e.g. the IEA estimates a doubling in data centres energy consumption from
2024 to 2026 [@IEA2024]). At the same time, current science is well aware of
several planetary boundaries being exceeded due to human activities

negligible fraction [@IEA2024]. Demands to move resource consumption to a
sustainable rate are well justified and supported by science [@Sills2019].

Candidates with a bachelor's degree in computer science are also

In order to give the future RSE the necessary breadth, we expect this to be a four semester curriculum.
In order to give the future RSE the necessary breadth, we expect this to be a four-semester curriculum.

The curriculum is formed from a combination of modules,
some of which are core modules teaching essential skills that must be completed by all students.
