Discipline：Environmental Science and Engineering
(Discipline Code: 0830)
Training Objectives
The students will grasp comprehensively and apply proficiently the basic theory and related techniques in the area of environmental engineering, thermal engineering or chemistry engineering, etc. They will learn about the latest research and development in the area and get trained in experimental research methods, computer application abilities and so on. The students will be able to conduct theoretical researches and experimental analysis discussions on key technical problems of water pollution control, water treatment technology, air pollution control, solid waste recycle as well as environmental administration, etc. The students graduated with a Master degree will have systematic and thorough expertise, become specialized in experimental techniques used in his/her research areas, be capable of conducting independent research in scientific fields and are competent for the scientific research, technological development and teaching. The graduated students will be proficient in one kind of foreign languages.
Training Period
Generally, the students are expected to graduate in 2 to 3 years, longest may delay for 4 years.
