This course aims to provide students with the knowledge, strategies and modern techniques for water treatment, environmental pollution control, management, and protection of resources, including air, water and land. Major topics include Water Resources, Treatment Processes, Fluid Mechanics & Coastal Engineering, Water & Air Quality Management, Environmental Engineering Science, which are designed to equip students with advanced skills to tackle both local and global environmental challenges. The students can specialize in the areas of air quality management/pollution control, risk assessment, waste management (including environmental restoration, groundwater management, and solid/hazardous/mixed waste management), water quality/control (including waste treatment, industrial and municipal wastewater treatment and disposal, and aquatic chemistry), and water resources engineering and management

Course objectives are:

1. Integrate knowledge from environmental engineering sub-disciplines to design and implement sustainable engineering works.

2. Accomplish planning, design, and construction of water systems and related infrastructural facilities.

3. Produce feasible, practical, and environmentally sustainable solutions for water treatment, wastewater management and pollution control.

4. Develop your engineering skills and learn to design, develop and apply concepts for water and waste, considering environmental sensitivity.

5. Develop core quantitative skills of leadership, water technologies, and water resources management.

6. Identify and address current and future societal problems related to water, waste, and the environment within a broader framework of sustainable development.

7. Use advanced techniques, skills, and modern scientific and engineering tools for problems related to professional practice in the field of water management.

8. Understand the impact of solutions to water and environmental engineering problems in a global, economic, environmental, and societal systems context.
