About this programme
Safety and environmental protection are indispensable elements of any industrial activity. In a modern society, technical processes will only be accepted if the emerging hazards are identified and kept under control and if the environmental impact is reduced to an acceptable minimum. To achieve these aims, experts are needed who possess both an in-depth understanding of process engineering and specific knowledge of safety and environmental technologies. The Master's programme in Process Safety and Environmental Engineering aims to educate experts for industry as well as for authorities, research organisations, and higher education. Graduates from the programme are versed in the natural scientific fundamentals of technical processes, especially those related to safety and the environment and think and act holistically in the assessment of safety and environmental concerns and their prevention and mitigation. They are able to apply their engineering know-how to safety and environmental problems and to develop appropriate solutions. The course is structured in four semesters with the three first semesters covering lectures, tutorials and lab work. The fourth semester is dedicated to the Master's thesis. PDF Download
