Overview
Key Features
An increasing world population exerts a continually growing demand on usable fresh water resources. For sustainable development of these water resources under economic and social constraints, the education of highly-qualified water resources engineers with a global perspective and the ability for international scientific cooperation is of utmost importance.
The Environment Water course from University of Stuttgart is offered in addition to bilingual M.Sc. programs, e.g. in Water Resources and Engineering Management (WAREM), Air Quality Control, Solid Waste and Waste Water Process Engineering (WASTE), Infrastructure Planning (MIP), and Computational Mechanics of Materials and Structures (COMMAS).
Programme Structure
- In the initial phase, doctoral researchers are required to take classes at the doctoral level as specified in an individually designed study plan. The courses are intended to directly aid in the preparation for the dissertation research.
- Most classes are taught in English, and the regular curriculum is supplemented through workshops and short courses taught by faculty from universities worldwide. Aside from classes, the doctoral researchers will mainly focus on the preparation of a detailed research proposal and a projected time line.
- In the second phase, the doctoral researchers primarily focus on their dissertation research and the preparation of a doctoral thesis. The thesis research may be undertaken at any of the participating institutes within the Faculty of Civil and Environmental Engineering Sciences. In addition, the candidates continue to participate in the doctoral seminar which takes place twice a year.
