Through a wide-range education in the scientifical and technological aspects of environmental engineering \u2013 supported in the skills on basic and engineering sciences, acquired previously or consolidated during the master \u2013 M.EA ensures the deepening of knowledge in the core aspects of this field. Simultaneously, through multiple and diverse optional curricular units, each student has the ability to deepen their skills based on their individual interests.<\/p>\n<\/div>
SPECIFIC OBJECTIVES<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n- To develop the ability to design, implement and operate prevention, intervention and rehabilitation technologies that aim to mitigate or eliminate the negative impacts of human activities in the environment. \u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
- To develop expertise in the use of decision support tools, namely the ones used in environmental and business management.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>
THIS MASTER ALLOWS TO<\/span><\/p>\n\n- Gain specialised knowledge in the design, development, and operation of environmental technologies, namely, gaseous, liquids or waste treatment plants, as well as soils rehabilitation.<\/li>\n
- Acquire the necessary knowledge aiming environmental monitoring and evaluation (e.g. environmental impact assessment and strategical environmental assessment)<\/li>\n
- Acquire integrated knowledge regarding environmental and business management to enable a joint assessment of the financial\/economical aspects and of the environmental aspects as well as of the environmental law.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
TRANSVERSAL COMPETENCES<\/span><\/p>\nIn addition to a dedicated course, the development of transferable skills is continuous and the students are encouraged to develop their personal, interpersonal and transferable skills. The multiple group tasks, throughout the course, represent an optimum moment to develop a wide range of skills, namely, active listening, empathy, cooperation, proactivity, and conflict management.<\/p>\n<\/div>
DIPLOMA<\/span><\/p>\nM.EA is the result of the separation of the previous Integrated Masters Degree in Environmental Engineering at FEUP into two independent courses, in order to comply with Article 19 of the Decree Law No. 65\/2018. Structured in 4 different semesters with a total of 120 ECTS, the programme culminates with the development of a thesis in the last semester.<\/p>\n
The study cycle consists of:<\/p>\n
(a) a non-degree-awarding master’s degree course consisting of an organized set of course units corresponding to 90 ECTS credits. Gives a Masters Degree (non-degree) in Environmental Engineering. The award of the non-degree awarding diploma can only occur in the 2nd year.<\/p>\n
(b) an original scientific dissertation, original and specifically designed for this purpose, corresponding to 30 of the 120 ECTS credits in the study cycle. The defense in public tests of the dissertation will allow obtaining of the master degree in Environmental Engineering.<\/p>\n
Built on the skills acquired in the first cycle, an integrated and harmonized range of topics are approached, from climate change, acoustics, environmental impact assessment, life cycle and risk assessment, and marine hydraulics, to the design of water, wastewater and waste treatment facilities as well as soil rehabilitation technologies, integrated in a broad and regional perspective with support of the environmental management, law and economics. A set of options that allow the deepening of knowledge in topics of interest to each student is provided (including one CU that can be selected from the UP education offer), together with a range of consolidation curricular units for student without prior consolidated training in structuring areas.<\/p>\n<\/div>

OBJECTIVES<\/span><\/p>\n Promote excellence in qualification in core aspects of environmental engineering, including the abilities to design and implement prevention, intervention or rehabilitation technologies to mitigate or eliminate the pollution effects, as well as to reduce the use of natural resources, in order to minimize the negative impacts of human activities in the environment.<\/p>\n Through a wide-range education in the scientifical and technological aspects of environmental engineering \u2013 supported in the skills on basic and engineering sciences, acquired previously or consolidated during the master \u2013 M.EA ensures the deepening of knowledge in the core aspects of this field. Simultaneously, through multiple and diverse optional curricular units, each student has the ability to deepen their skills based on their individual interests.<\/p>\n<\/div> SPECIFIC OBJECTIVES<\/span><\/p>\n THIS MASTER ALLOWS TO<\/span><\/p>\n TRANSVERSAL COMPETENCES<\/span><\/p>\n In addition to a dedicated course, the development of transferable skills is continuous and the students are encouraged to develop their personal, interpersonal and transferable skills. The multiple group tasks, throughout the course, represent an optimum moment to develop a wide range of skills, namely, active listening, empathy, cooperation, proactivity, and conflict management.<\/p>\n<\/div> DIPLOMA<\/span><\/p>\n M.EA is the result of the separation of the previous Integrated Masters Degree in Environmental Engineering at FEUP into two independent courses, in order to comply with Article 19 of the Decree Law No. 65\/2018. Structured in 4 different semesters with a total of 120 ECTS, the programme culminates with the development of a thesis in the last semester.<\/p>\n The study cycle consists of:<\/p>\n (a) a non-degree-awarding master’s degree course consisting of an organized set of course units corresponding to 90 ECTS credits. Gives a Masters Degree (non-degree) in Environmental Engineering. The award of the non-degree awarding diploma can only occur in the 2nd year.<\/p>\n (b) an original scientific dissertation, original and specifically designed for this purpose, corresponding to 30 of the 120 ECTS credits in the study cycle. The defense in public tests of the dissertation will allow obtaining of the master degree in Environmental Engineering.<\/p>\n Built on the skills acquired in the first cycle, an integrated and harmonized range of topics are approached, from climate change, acoustics, environmental impact assessment, life cycle and risk assessment, and marine hydraulics, to the design of water, wastewater and waste treatment facilities as well as soil rehabilitation technologies, integrated in a broad and regional perspective with support of the environmental management, law and economics. A set of options that allow the deepening of knowledge in topics of interest to each student is provided (including one CU that can be selected from the UP education offer), together with a range of consolidation curricular units for student without prior consolidated training in structuring areas.<\/p>\n<\/div> ACCREDITATION<\/span><\/p>\n This course is certified by the Agency for Assessment and Accreditation of Higher Education (A3ES).<\/p>\n<\/div> The graduates of this programme are ready to fully and immediately practice Environmental Engineering in industries, companies in different fields, as well as in municipal services and governmental agencies.<\/p>\n As Environmental Engineers, graduates are able to perform various assignments related to: environmental assessment and management, industrial ecology, water resources management; design and manage water treatment plants; design and manage solid waste treatment systems; rehabilitation of soils and aquifers; ecosystems management; climate change and air quality; acoustics and vibration; planning and land management; energy usage and it\u2019s effects in the environment; environmental health and work safety.<\/p>\n<\/div> The employability rate of MIEA in 2019\/20 was 90%<\/strong>.<\/p>\n The data correspond to an inquire of FEUP made in 2021 and relate to the graduates of MIEA from 2019\/2020 (1st job after graduation); 74% of the graduates responded to the\u00a0questionnaire. <\/i><\/p>\n<\/div> BEFORE FINISHING THE STUDIES<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div> LESS THAN 6 MONTHS AFTER FINISHING THE STUDIES<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div> Correlation between job position and study area FULLY RELATED<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div> PARTIALLY RELATED<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div> First Job in Portugal\/Abroad PORTUGAL<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div> ABROAD<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n
