This MSc programme provides academic and practical training for Engineers and Scientists with a special interest in management of water and the environment.  The course is delivered by academics from Bristol's renowned Department of Civil Engineering, and leading practitioners from industry.

The main aim of the WEM programme is to provide graduates with a sound knowledge and fundamental understanding of integrated water and environmental management.  This includes considering the relationships between human activity and the environment, and quantifying the impacts of human activities, and the technical and socio-economic approaches for preventing and controlling adverse environmental impacts.

The course is particularly suitable for graduates who wish to pursue a career in the Water Industry, Environmental Management, or International Development.  Past graduates have found employment in consultancies, companies in the pharmaceutical and engineering sectors, environmental regulators, local authorities and other public sector bodies.

The MSc course consists of four core modules, four optional modules for students to select from a broad range of subject areas, and four months' individual research towards a thesis.  Modules are taught through lectures, group tutorials, and private study, with field visits, and are assessed through a combination of exams and assignments.

All modules are allocated two weeks of study time:  one week for timetabled activity and the other for private study and preparation of assignments.  Timetabled activities are available to be taken as short-courses to meet CPD requirements.

Entrance requirements

A minimum of a second-class Honours degree, or an international equivalent, in an engineering or science subject. Other qualifications or relevant professional experience will also be considered. Applicants whose first language is not English normally require IELTS 6.5, TOEFL 92, or equivalent.
