Course Summary

Why this course?

MSc Environmental Engineering is closely aligned with industry’s demands, this course meets the needs of:

urban regeneration

land contamination management

environmental protection

infrastructure investment portfolios in Scotland and worldwide

A distinctive feature of this course is its topical nature. Glasgow has been undergoing extensive urban regeneration, including building on land that's been contaminated in the past. You’ll have challenging 'real world' issues to study close to the University. From this experience, you'll become able to translate the principles of environmental engineering that you have learned into national and international context.

    It should be noted that candidates completing the MSc who hold an underpinning accredited IEng degree or a non-accredited bachelor degree will need to apply for an academic assessment to determine whether they will meet the educational base for CEng registration.

    Careers

    Graduates of the MSc in Environmental Engineering are widely scattered internationally in environmentally related jobs – including a large number of environmental and engineering consultancies, industry, local government and national and international regulatory agencies.

    Modules

    This class introduces microbiology in a manner that is of practical importance in environmental engineering and science. Topics covered include: the microbial ecology and microbiology of dilute nutrient solutions such as lakes, subsurface environmental and biological treatment processes; microbial physiology; biochemistry; biodegradation and public health aspects of microbiology.

    Entry requirements

    Normally a first-class or second-class honours degree (or international equivalent) in engineering, earth sciences, environmental management, or a background in the chemical, physical, biological or mathematical sciences. Lower degree classifications may be considered if there is strength elsewhere (for example, relevant work experience, excellent final project/dissertation, very strong academic letter of reference, very strong application statement linking with career goals). You’ll need two supportive academic references and/or appropriate professional experience or achievements.
