Course overview
The Master's Programme in Environmental Engineering is designed to equip its graduates with the expertise, the soft and hard skills necessary to address the ongoing and future environmental challenges threatening the security and resilience of the ecosystem, and the societal well-being. These challenges, aggravated by the changing climate, include, for example, atmospheric and air pollution, deterioration in water quality, urban waste treatment, environmental pollution, erosion of the coastline and decarbonisation of the energy industry.
Environmental Engineering students are therefore introduced to the scientific knowledge and state-of-the-art methodologies for understanding atmospheric processes, recycling urban wastes, battling environmental pollution through biotechnology, improving water and air quality in cities, protecting the coastal zone and producing energy from renewable sources. Our students have also the opportunity to focus on aspects related to sustainable development for the built environment, hydrology and hydrogeology.
This Master's Programme in Environmental Engineering offers a multi-disciplinary focus on environmental protection and management in a changing world. The Programme is intended for Environmental, Civil, and Chemical Engineers, Biologists, Chemists, Physicists and graduates with similar expertise. For graduating, MSc students must successfully complete 7 graduate courses (56 ECTS) and a research Thesis (CEE 680, 54 ECTS).
