Description of Courses

The Environmental Management and Technology programme is structured to offer students a comprehensive understanding of environmental systems and the technological solutions necessary to manage and protect these systems. In the first year, students are introduced to fundamental environmental science concepts, while subsequent years focus on the application of technology and management strategies to address contemporary environmental challenges, preparing them to propose sustainable solutions in their final year.

The Environmental Management and Technology programme aims to equip students with the knowledge and skills to analyze environmental issues, design and implement management strategies, and apply technological innovations to promote sustainability. It prepares graduates for careers in environmental consulting, natural resource management, pollution control, renewable energy, and policy-making or self-employment in green industries.

Objectives of the Environmental Management and Technology degree programme include providing students with a solid foundation in environmental science, fostering problem-solving abilities in ecological and technological contexts, developing practical skills in environmental monitoring, management, and sustainability practices, and cultivating transferable skills applicable in both environmental and non-environmental fields. Additionally, the programme prepares students for advanced studies in specialized environmental disciplines or interdisciplinary fields, promotes an appreciation of the interconnectedness of ecological, social, and economic systems, and emphasizes the critical role of environmental technology in addressing global challenges. Unique aspects of the programme include fostering innovation in sustainable technologies, encouraging hands-on experience in environmental impact assessments, and equipping graduates with the expertise needed to develop sustainable policies and practices for industries and communities.
