Water Engineering

Duration: one year full time

This programme is designed as a 'one-stop-shop' for both recent graduates and more experienced engineers who wish to update and enhance their expertise in the area of water engineering. By undertaking and completing this course you will be equipped with the right skills and knowledge to address the future challenges faced by this critical sector.

The course is distinctive in bringing together a broad spectrum of applications within water engineering, covering advanced topics in civil engineering, chemical engineering, building services engineering, and sustainable water resources engineering.

The programme examines the links between theory and practice by including input from our industrial partners and through site visits. Modules in financial and project management will underpin specialist modules focusing on water engineering topics. Additional core engineering topics unique to this course will also be covered, namely industrial wastewater, water in healthcare, water in agriculture, and desalination. Further, students’ skills in gathering and understanding complex information from a variety of sources (including engineering, scientific and socio-economic information) will be developed in an advanced research methods module.  Issues relating to risk and health and safety will be introduced in the research methods module and built on in the more specialist modules.
