Environmental Engineering - Master of Science Degree Programme

Water with its numerous anomalies is the fundamental nutrient and ecosystem component for all living organisms. The aim of this programme is to provide students with knowledge and skills necessary to become responsible water managers and engineers.

This programme incorporates two specialisations:

Offshore Environmental Technology

Students that want to pursue a career in the oil and gas industry can choose the specialisation in Offshore Environmental Technology. The philosophy of this programme is to combine courses in offshore oil and gas exploration, production technologies and environmental management. The programme is suited for students that are interested in practical technological and administrative competences for sound environmental management in the offshore industries.

Water Science and Technology

The specialisation in Water Science and Technology is offered to students who want to focus on aquatic chemistry and ecology, and technologies for water and wastewater treatment. Being more natural science and research based, the programme provides students with fundamental and advanced competances in aquatic chemistry, environmental biotechnology and water process engineering.
