Environmental Engineering Bachelor

Sustainable Resource Management

Water, soil and air are becoming increasingly precious as populations increase. The goal of environmental engineers is to manage these vital resources in a sustainable manner and to rehabilitate them wherever necessary.

Credits ECTS: 180
Language of instruction: German

Structure:

The Bachelor’s degree programme provides a solid foundation in the fundamentals of mathematics and the natural and engineering sciences. A small project in the second semester gives some insight into practical problems. Laboratory work also familiarises students with the necessary analytical and experimental methods. Additional knowledge is acquired in elective modules (see box). This section of the programme concludes with an independent Bachelor's thesis.
