Introduction into Environmental Engineering
Einführung Umweltingenieurwissenschaften
In this course students are introduced to how environmental problems in the areas of water quantity and quality, waste production and recycling, air pollution control, are formulated and solved with engineering methods. The course makes a connection between the theoretical Bachelor foundation classes and practical topics of environmental engineering in six main thematic areas.
Introduction to Environmental Monitoring
Praktikum Umweltbeobachtung
Typical parameter which are relevant for environmental systems are measured with modern sensors. The measuring devices are put together and programmed using a Sensebox (Arduino-based measuring box). The environmental data are analyzed and compared with information from literature.
Students integrate their knowledge of mineral resources and technical skills to frame and investigate a commodity-specific challenge faced by countries involved in resource extraction. By own research they evaluate possible policy-relevant solutions, engaging in interdisciplinary teams coached by tutors and experts from natural social and engineering sciences.
