| Course abstract | |
| In study course students learn technical solutions for problems of environmental engineering. They improve their skills in relevant project elaboration, providing a suitable waste water and waste management, drinking water preparing, water, soil and atmospheric pollution prevention and control. | |
| Learning outcomes and their assessment | |
| The course develops knowledge and understanding of the possible technical solutions for water, air and soil pollution control and prevention. Students will be able to prepare equipment and design of water engineering projects, including the explanatory part and graphical material. Competence in environmental engineering issues listed in the course description, will provide an opportunity to make their own decisions and take action in the field of environment and water management. | |
