Enhance your undergraduate qualification with specialised knowledge to enable progression into an engineering masters programme. This qualification gives students who have completed a three-year engineering degree the opportunity to build on their previous skills, and understand the principles, concepts and ideas that underpin a chosen specialisation. It is designed to provide a pathway to further study in a masters programme. A Master of Engineering Studies in Environmental Engineering consists of courses and small research projects in the areas of environmental impact assessment, waste minimisation and management and the protection of air, water, and soil from pollution. Our academic staff members’ main research areas include: Fate and transport of contaminants in the environment Mitigating greenhouse gas emissions through novel technologies Treatment of emerging contaminants by membrane processes Resource recovery from wastewater and organic wastes Assessing energy efficiency of wastewater treatment facilities.
