Specialise in environmental and sustainable processes while developing the technical, professional and digital skills needed in industry.
Our course is for engineers and scientists who want to make a positive impact on the environment, society and the future of our planet. Climate change, GHG emissions and loss of biodiversity are important global issues and the world needs leaders and innovators to design and manage sustainable processes and systems to address these.
If you have that desire to learn how to solve the important environmental challenges we face, then our course can help you towards that goal. We’ll develop your skills, knowledge and understanding to take on these issues against a backdrop of economic factors, environmental compliance and national and international legislation.
Your studies will cover areas such as improving resource efficiency, and how to monitor, manage and mitigate negative environmental consequences. You’ll learn how to apply whole-systems and life-cycle approaches to evaluate the impact of industrial activities while considering current and possible future legislation. This ‘big-picture thinking’ will allow you to move beyond traditional approaches to process engineering.
You should have a first or strong second-class Bachelor’s honours degree or international equivalent.
To apply for this course, you should have an undergraduate degree in chemical engineering, civil engineering, mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, biochemical engineering, environmental engineering, environmental sciences or natural sciences (e.g. physics, chemistry or biochemistry). We will also consider other relevant engineering and science disciplines.
If your first language is not English but within the last 2 years you completed your degree in the UK you may be exempt from our English language requirements.
We may make an offer based on a lower grade if you can provide evidence of your suitability for the degree.

Our course has a multidisciplinary focus to help prepare you to work as an environmental engineer in the public and private sectors. You could work in consultancy firms, environmental management and manufacturing, or sustainable product distribution. Or you could play a critical role in stakeholder policy negotiations between economists, lawyers, engineers and environmentalists.
