Combining different approaches, this article describes a multidisciplinary graduate course (Solar Master) on solar energy for science, engineering, economics and management students aimed to shape professionals capable to understand, develop and disseminate solar energy seen as a strategic and critical resource. Eventually, students ending the Solar Master will become professionals whose companies will not only use or install high quality solar energy systems, but will be able to increase public perception of solar energy as an intrinsically reliable and cost competitive energy source to produce electricity on utility scale as well as electricity, heat and light for all sort of buildings across the world.
