📚About the Program

Master in urban environmental science management offers an interdisciplinary approach into the investigation of processes that control the earth and its environment. The course introduces students to the necessary knowledge and skills to seize opportunities presented by new developments in areas such as global cycles, biogeochemistry, sustainable technologies, environmental pollution assessment and remediation, and natural hazard. This is achieved through a balance between policy, mathematical modelling, ecosystem management and research methods all related to the environmental field. The course focusses on resource management and allocation through three specialised units. Urban planning provides a holistic approach to the analysis and design of basic infrastructural requirements within regions. Resource management is aimed at understanding the potential of the resources available in order to make the best use of them through specialised scientific calculations. Solid waste management technologies aims to give an overview on various hazardous and non-hazardous waste management processes. Show less
