become part of
a new generation
of environmental
scientists

 

The International Master of Science in Environmental Technology and Engineering (IMETE) is a Joint Master Degree Programme, taught in English, bringing together students and scholars from all over the world. 


In IMETE, you will become part of a new generation of environmental scientists. As a graduate, you will be able to design and apply state-of-the-art environmental technology and engineering solutions to tackle today’s global environmental problems.

You will study at three leading European universities in 3 different European countries: Ghent University (Belgium), IHE Delft Institute for Water Education (The Netherlands), and the University of Chemistry and Technology, Prague (Czech Republic).

Programme start: September 2022

Duration: 2 years

Erasmus Mundus Scholarships available, application deadline: 4 March 2022

SEMESTER 1
UCT PRAGUE,
CZECH REPUBLIC

The University of Chemistry and Technology, Prague (UCT) is a public university known for both the depth and broadness of its educational and research activities in almost all branches of chemistry, biochemistry, refining, water-treatment, power and biological sciences and technologies.

 

SEMESTER 2
IHE DELFT,
THE NETHERLANDS

IHE Delft Institute for Water Education is the largest international graduate water education facility in the world. Since 1957 the Institute has provided graduate education to more than 15,000 water professionals from over 162 countries, the vast majority from the developing world. 

 

SEMESTER 3
GHENT UNIVERSITY, BELGIUM

Ghent University distinguishes itself as a socially committed and pluralistic institution in a broad international perspective. It offers high-quality, research-based education in all academic disciplines, and attracts over 32,000 students, including a large international student population.

This is followed by the thesis research at one of the three above institutions in SEMESTER 4.

IMETE also allows you to visit any of the numerous associated partners from all over the world for thesis research. These partners also contribute to the programme through visiting scholars and researchers.

Once graduated, you obtain a joint degree from the 3 universities and are an "International Master of Science in Environmental Technology and Engineering".

 

As a graduate of IMETE you are ready for a professional career in:

  • the private sector (environmental technological applications in different domains),

  • the research sector (applied research at universities or research institutions, or in-company research), or

  • the public sector (consulting in local, regional and (inter)national administrations, defining and implementing environmental policy for sustainable development).

Visit our updated career section to see what are alumni are saying about life after graduation.

The IMETE programme takes two years to complete and starts in September.

 

In February of the next year students move to Delft, the Netherlands and in September students move to Gent. Finally, in February of the 3rd year, students start their thesis research at one of the three academic institutions or at an associated partner.
