Water, Waste and Environmental Engineering

This Water, Waste and Environmental Engineering course from University of Greenwich is designed for graduates from a wide range of environmental engineering backgrounds who want to apply new sustainable strategies to increasingly complex problems. We cover the technical aspects of natural and engineering environmental systems.

Career opportunities:

Graduates will find employment opportunities as engineers, scientist and technical managers in the private sector (engineering design firms, engineering consultancy, project management, risk management and waste management), and in the public sector (environmental protection engineering, regulations and standards, local government).

You may also wish to pursue further qualifications such as a PhD to become even more specialised.

Employers of environmental engineers include engineering consultancies (such as AECOM, Atkins, Mott MacDonald Group, Hyder), government agencies (such as Environment Agency, Scottish Environment Protection Agency) and NGOs (such as Oxfam, Engineers without Boarders, Water Aid).

Courses include:

• Environmental Engineering and Sustainability

• Information Technologies for Environmental Engineering

• Research, Planning and Communication

• Waste Management and Remediation Technology

• Desalination and Water Reuse

• Development Engineering for Water and Sanitation
