In a rapidly changing environmental sector, where engineering solutions must integrate climate resilience, digital tools and emerging technologies, graduates of this course can expect to be highly sought after by employers. Equipped with advanced environmental engineering knowledge and practical management skills, you will have opportunities to pursue impactful careers across engineering, industry, and the public sector, including government. The Environmental Engineering MSc is designed for science, engineering, and geography graduates who are passionate about the protection and improvement of environmental quality alongside enhancing the quality of human life. We also welcome graduates currently in employment who are keen to gain further qualifications or to pursue a career change, or individuals with other qualifications and considerable relevant experience. During the Environmental Engineering masters, you will learn principles of environmental improvements, including the protection of environmental quality at both local, landscape and global scales.
This module aims to provide an advanced theoretical and specialist understanding of current global environmental challenges and enable the application of scientific and engineering principles for environmental risk assessment, management, protection and solutions design. Practical work will involve field visits, environmental data interpretation, and environmental risk assessment for a site or a process.
This module aims to provide fundamental knowledge and practical skills related to existing and emerging methods, technologies and environmental informatics tools for environmental data acquisition and analysis to support the design and evaluation of environmental engineering solutions.
Practical work will involve field visits, and computer practicals.
This module aims to provide you with fundamental knowledge and practical skills to select, compare and design existing and emerging environmental engineering solutions destined to improve the environment or reduce environmental impacts via an integrated and cross-disciplinary approach.
Practical work will involve field visits, computer practicals, and group dynamics.
The purpose of this module is to provide you with experience of planning a project that will involve scoping and designing a product. The module provides sessions on project and planning, including sustainable design principles, project risk management and resource allocation. A key part of this module is the consideration of systems thinking approach for creating innovative solutions, ethics, professional conduct, and the role of an engineer within the wider industry context as well as considerations for equality, diversity and inclusion.
