Master´s degree

Talking about environmental engineering is to talk about relatively new science, which is part of engineering, and which integrates ecological, social, economic and technological issues: therefore, it will have a lot to do with the concept of sustainable development.

The purpose of the master program in Environmental Technology and Engineering is to propose solutions that contribute to the performance of the life system and preserve our natural resources in order to improve the quality of life making all human activities more sustainable. However, combining economic growth with sustainable development is often complex, and may even seem contradictory, so it is the job of the environmental engineer to develop solutions that contribute to the country’s growth within the framework of sustainable development. An environmental professional will be responsible to diagnose, design, implement, investigate, manage and undertake possible solutions needed that arise in society in the respective work area or sphere of action.

The master program in Environmental Technology and Engineering of University CEPES provides an interdisciplinary education in management and engineering fundamentals, with an emphasis on the study of technologies and trends to preserve our natural environment and efficient use of natural resources.
