Environmental Engineering

The Faculty of Building Services, Hydro, and Environmental Engineering offers a 4-year Bachelor's degree in Environmental Engineering. The primary objective of the program is to provide students with high-quality interdisciplinary knowledge and skills to address current and future environmental problems. The program covers a wide range of topics, including water resources protection, air pollution control, solid waste management, environmental impact assessment, renewable energy systems, and others.

During the undergraduate program, students are taught fundamental engineering skills and basic subjects such as mathematics, physics, chemistry, and biology. They also learn about the processes of major constituents of the environment, as well as basic environmental technologies. The program covers topics such as atmospheric physics and chemistry, air pollution control, hydrology, water resources and water protection, water and sewage processing, groundwater, soil protection and land reclamation, waste management, and the use of the best available technologies and production practices, recycling, and reuse of wastes. In addition, environmental aspects of energy production and use are emphasized throughout all engineering courses.

The program is divided into eight semesters, with the first three semesters covering basic knowledge of mathematics, physics, chemistry, and biology, and several engineering basic courses offered to give students a comprehensive understanding of environmental issues. The next four semesters cover specific topics within the field of environmental engineering. The eighth semester is mainly devoted to the professional internship, working on the final project, and preparation of the B.Sc. thesis, in which students use their knowledge to analyze and find a proper solution to a given problem.

The modules covered during the program include Biology and Ecology, Information Technology, Strength of Materials and Structural Mechanics, Material Engineering, Fluid Mechanics, Civil Engineering and Constructions, Statistics in Environmental Sciences, Hydrology, Meteorology, Soil Protection, Engineering Hydrology and Hydrogeology, Environmental Chemistry, Air Pollution Control, Solid Waste Management, Water Resources Protection, Municipal and Industrial Wastewater Treatment, and Renewable Energy Systems. Overall, the Faculty of Building Services, Hydro, and Environmental Engineering offers an excellent program that equips students with the knowledge and skills necessary to address environmental challenges and make a positive impact on the world.
