About the Program

The Bachelor's program in Environmental Engineering offers a comprehensive education to address environmental issues at both German and global levels. Environmental engineers possess application-ready knowledge for the design and implementation of engineering structures, applications in environmental process engineering, urban water management, circular economy, rural water management, environmental data collection and analysis, integrated planning in rural areas, and renewable energies. They are fundamentally capable of planning and operating facilities for environmental design and protection. Environmental engineers work at the interface of environment, technology, and society. The Rostock program distinguishes itself from other environmental engineering programs through its focus on the special features of rural areas and coastal regions. The program is affiliated with the Faculty of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences and cooperates with the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, the Faculty of Computer Science and Electrical Engineering, and the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and Ship Technology. Characteristic fields of activity for environmental engineers include companies in the supply and disposal sector, the construction industry, environmental plant construction, planning offices, water and soil associations, the public sector (environmental administrations), and science.
