This MSc course is designed for graduates from a wide range of environmental engineering backgrounds who want to apply new sustainable strategies to increasingly complex problems. Our broad approach combines science, public health, and engineering. You will develop your engineering skills and learn to design, develop, and apply concepts for waste management. In this program, students will examine various waste management strategies such as recycling, composting, landfilling, and waste-to-energy facilities. There will also be abundant opportunities for you to engage with professionals in the field, attend panels, workshops, events, and participate in immersive multi-day field experiences to establish your network. This program enables students to expand their existing base of knowledge by engaging in an approved curriculum of coursework (30 graduate units), taking 2-3 years to complete on a full-time basis.
