They will be able to develop, design and apply technologies for the prevention and remediation of environmental pollution. In addition, they should be capable of:
-

Trained graduates will be fully prepared to fulfil executive functions in international institutions (government, universities, non-governmental organisations, etc.) and private companies that deal with either application and development of pollution prevention, remediation and engineering techniques or regulatory decision-making.
Environmental technology and engineering is – more than other disciplines – based on international cooperation in business and research. Therefore, the approach of IMETE qualifies the students for a professional career.
The students study in three universities, the programme language is English and students gain multi-cultural experience with other students from European and non-European countries, in particular also students from developing countries and countries in transition.
