Environmental Engineering BA (Lisboa)

Environmental Engineering is currently a growing area of activity that needs competent professionals capable of identifying/studying complex environmental situations, using a holistic and integrative approach, supported by basic sciences (chemistry, biology, physics, mathematics, among others) combined with a technological intervention in engineering areas, to contribute to a more sustainable society. The degree (1st Cycle) in Environmental Engineering at Lusofona University began in 1993 and currently, with almost 30 years of history, has a curricular plan aimed at current problems and challenges, focusing on a strong laboratory and basic science component and In addition to producing graduates with a very high degree of employability (about 90%, according to 2019 data), the course is intended to be stimulating, interesting and motivating for students, leading them to acquire scientific and essential techniques for professional practice and/or the pursuit of master's or doctoral studies, not neglecting transversal skills in terms of integral human training, ethics and professional deontology. The completion of the 1st Cycle in Environmental Engineering, structured in accordance with the Bologna Declaration, has a normal duration of 3 years (6 semesters, 180 ECTS) grants a degree in Environmental Engineering and allows the pursuit of a master's degree (2nd Cycle) in Environmental Engineering, training also available at Engineering Faculty
