Studying environmental engineering is worthwhile because it develops technical solutions for key ecological challenges. Graduates actively contribute to climate protection, resource conservation and sustainable infrastructure. Specialists in this field are in high demand due to climate change. In addition, the degree programme combines engineering methods with interdisciplinary approaches and thus offers both practical and research-oriented career paths.
Students on this Bachelor's programme study:
- Biology, chemistry, thermodynamics and fluid dynamics
- Waste and resource management, ecology and environmental economics
- Energy-efficient and sustainable construction
- Environmental geotechnics
- Transport and infrastructure planning
- Hydraulic engineering, hydropower and urban water management
- Metrology, surveying and GIS
Environmental engineers are responsible for the analysis and evaluation of environmental pollution and the development of technical, nature-based and organisational solutions for the protection and sustainable use of environmental resources.
This includes the areas of water and waste management, soil protection, environmental monitoring as well as climate protection and adaptation. Environmental engineers work at the interface between technology, science and society and make a significant contribution to the development of environmentally friendly infrastructures and processes.
Graduates of the Bachelor's degree programme have the opportunity to work as an engineer in practice as well as to enter a relevant Master's degree programme.
