Target Group and Admission Requirements

Bachelor in chemical or mechanical engineering. Final exam in Mathematics III at TUC or equivalent are also required.

Aim of the Programme

The program focuses upon environmentally-friendly energy production from both renewable and non-renewable energy sources, and upon prevention of pollution of air and water. Specialization is given in the field combustion and energy, and in physical and biological cleaning processes.

The successful candidate can find employment with companies working with safety and environmental risk analysis, design and operation of pollution abatement facilities or water treatment plants, energy production, management, and distribution, and with research institutes.

The program qualifies for admission to doctoral studies in technology at Norwegian and foreign universities.
