Program Structure
The Environmental Engineering and Sustainability Management (EESM) Master's Program aims to produce engineers and project managers who are able to tackle a wide variety of environmental challenges, such as industrial discharge control, chemical and biological approaches to pollution diagnosis, water-related engineering and soil treatment, and waste valorization. The Program also covers new concepts such as life cycle assessment, eco-design, omics sciences, numerical simulation and modeling.
While most master's courses devoted to environmental issues only provide students with technical skills, EESM also prepares you for managing positions. All the professors in the Program work to help students become both technically skilled and job ready by the end of the two years. Throughout the Master's Program, students have the opportunity to go on a number of field trips and company visits. They also get to put their skills into practice during two internships:
The first internship takes place at the end of Year 1 and lasts four months. During this period, students must work on a scientific project.
The second internship takes place at the end of the Program and lasts five to six months. Students have the choice between achieving either a scientific or managerial project.
In the first year, The program provides technical concepts such as microbial ecology for environmental sciences, life cycle assessment, analytical chemistry, environmental chemistry and wastewater treatment. The first internship takes place at the end of Year 1 and lasts four months. During this period, students must work on a scientific project.
Year 2
In the second year, students are trained in depth with scientific courses such as solid waste valorization, soil pollution and remediation, molecular biogeochemistry and environmental humanities.
The second internship takes place at the end of the Program and lasts five to six months. Students have the choice between completing either a scientific or managerial project
Throughout the Master's Program, students have the opportunity to go on a number of field trips and company visits.
