Description

The Bachelor of Science in Umweltingenieurwissenschaften at TU Darmstadt offers you a wide-ranging degree programme that can be adapted to your interests. In six semesters, you will acquire comprehensive knowledge that will enable you to enter the professional world or to pursue a Master's degree programme. The degree programme comprises a total of 180 credit points (CP) and is divided into various study areas, which you can tailor to your individual preferences.

Compulsory engineering area (97 CP):

Here you will receive a solid foundation in scientific and technical principles, which will provide you with the necessary tools for further study content.

Subject-related compulsory area (31 CP):

In this area, you will expand your knowledge and lay the foundation for your future specialisation. Here you will deepen your understanding of engineering methods and concepts.

Subject-related elective area (33 CP):

This area is the core of your individual specialisation. Choose two of the following thematic specialisations to determine your own professional focus:

· Engineering Hydrology and Hydraulic Engineering)

· Water Technology and Pollutants

· Spatial Planning and Resource Management

· Environmental Monitoring

Each specialisation comprises 12 CP and offers you the opportunity to specialise in the areas that interest you the most. In addition, you can choose 9 CP from the modules offered in all specialisations of Department 13 to further individualise your specialisation.

General elective area (7 CP):

You are free to choose: You can select additional modules from the entire TU Darmstadt course catalogue that complement your interests and skills.

TU Darmstadt Career Service

Be it climate change, dwindling resources, an increase in world population, mega cities, or the problems involved: environment-related issues are becoming more and more important. Without technical solutions, managing these urgent tasks is unthinkable. Therefore, we can assume that knowledge regarding environmental engineering will be of considerable significance, which should result in corresponding job opportunities for suitable graduates.

An environmental engineer’s areas of responsibility include, for example, water supply and disposal, waste disposal, energy supply, urban planning in terms of environmental engineering, rehabilitation of contaminated land, and air and noise protection.

Environmental engineers can work, for example, as project managers, consultants, or planners. They are employed by engineering firms, the public service, development aid, transport companies, or water and wastewater associations.

In this context, environmental engineers frequently cooperate with civil engineers, geodesists, mechanical engineers, architects, spatial planners and landscape designers, as well as scientists, economists, and social scientists.
