Environmental Engineering Warsaw University of Technology

Overview

It is primarily addressed to the alumni of the undergraduate programme in environmental engineering or other undergraduate engineering programmes, such as civil, mechanical or chemical engineering. 

The Environmental Engineering Program from the Warsaw University of Technology  first year gives in-depth knowledge in computational methods, environmental fluid mechanics, chemistry, scientific programming, data analysis, and management. Moreover, several specialized engineering courses cover specific topics within the field of environment protection engineering.

Moreover, in the third and fourth semesters, students work on the final project and prepare a master thesis on a proposed topic. The completed Master’s Thesis should demonstrate acquired scientific and technical skills and understanding of environmental issues. The thesis is presented for review, assessment and examination by the Faculty Examination Board. The master thesis is credited with 20 ECTS points.  

Graduate Profile – job opportunities:  

• The undergraduate programme in Environmental Engineering Programme from the Warsaw University of Technology aims at a general engineering practice related to protecting the environment and sustainable development. Students are trained for positions as consulting engineers, environmental affairs engineers for industrial and transportation companies, land reclamation and waste management companies, water and sewer companies, engineering design studios and consulting companies, civil servants in national, regional and local environmental agencies and services, environmental inspection and monitoring units.  
• At the Masters’s level, the programme in Environment Protection Engineering aims at research and engineering activities concerning the mitigating of negative impacts of human activity on the environment. Graduates receiving the Master of Science in Engineering degree will be able to develop their individual/independent professional practices, carry out an environmental impact assessment, design and execute or supervise environment protection measures in companies, maintain monitoring networks and provide expertise to local and regional authorities for decision making.
