Management and Technology of Water and Waste Water

Overview

Students in the Management and Technology of Water and Waste Water programme from University of Duisburg-Essen will develop the skills to gain a detailed understanding of today's water industry systems, particularly in the area of management, engineering and process engineering, with the focus being on water collection, treatment and purification. 

In these areas, students will be taught joined-up thinking across business administration, water management and technical issues. They will be able to understand complex water management systems and apply such systems and technologies internationally with due regard to regional and national contexts.

Alongside in-depth lectures on advanced engineering, students will also attend special lectures covering process technology, water treatment and wastewater purification, management and administration, and water management.

Graduates will:

• Develop an awareness of advanced theory and core mechanical engineering disciplines;

• Develop advanced knowledge and skills in water treatment;

• Develop advanced knowledge and skills in wastewater treatment;

• Will be able to integrate process engineering with environmental and water management technology and will be able to pursue their preference for a commercial or academic career via their choice of electives;
