Environment and Pollution Techniques Engineering
First Cycle – Bachelor’s degree (B.Sc.)

Mission & Vision Statement

Vision Statement
The academic staff of the environment and pollution engineering department at northern technical university believes that students come to understand the discipline of environment and pollution through a combination of laboratory experiences, fieldwork with research work on air, soil, and water pollution, the impact of biological pollution, wastewater treatment, and solid waste management. The combination of instructional methods leads students to a balanced understanding of the scientific methods used by ecologists to make observations, develop insights and create theories about the environment that surrounds our planet. Small class sizes within the environment and pollution program foster a close working relationship between academic staff and students.

Mission Statement
The academic staff in the environment and pollution dept pursues a multifaceted charge at Northern Technical University. The Program seeks to provide all environment dept students with fundamental knowledge of ecology, as well as a deeper understanding of a selected focus area within the ecological sciences. The curriculum and advising have been designed to prepare graduates for their professional future, whether they choose to work as field ecologists specializing in water pollution or air pollution or to pursue advanced degrees in wastewater treatment systems or sanitary networks. The program also provides the necessary fundamental knowledge of the management and control to support the solid waste management, industrial waste management, water pollution control and wastewater control. In addition, the courses provide a key laboratory science experience for those students seeking to complete the general education requirements.

Program Specification

Environment and pollution is a wonderfully wide-ranging subject and is well equipped to deliver. The emphasis of the programme is ne the fundamental studies on ecology and different types of environmental pollutions and how to control them. The Environmental Engineering program offered by northern technical university are designed to assist you in acquiring the academic foundation required for a career as a professional engineer in the industrial, consultancy, and academic fields. You will develop the knowledge and abilities necessary to meet the challenges of industry and research in the twenty-first century, including those relating to the design, air pollution, water and soil pollution, wastewater treatment systems etc., you will also gain the understanding necessary to work at the intersection of engineering and the environmental sciences. The variety of units and alternatives available emphasize the flexibility of the subject of environmental engineering and your capacity to gradually narrow the scope of your study.

Program Objectives
