Sustainable Engineering - MSc

University of KentCanterbury, United Kingdom

Course overview

It’s time for new thinking. Rapid environmental change has forced global industries and governments to consider different ways of doing things - from the way we build, to the way we power our machines and lifestyles. Our new MSc in Sustainable Engineering will help you become a future leader and advocate for Net Zero.

You’ll explore the realities and possibilities of Sustainable Engineering, including the search for new energy sources, innovative material design and recycling, and how to meet upcoming global environmental targets. You’ll learn on a course that’s been developed alongside industry, with practical projects and real-world challenges. You’ll gather insights from people and organisations at the forefront of the Green Industrial Revolution.

And you also have the option to see how these solutions are delivered, with an optional year in industry. To deliver a more sustainable future, we need people with skills, ideas and imagination. People who dream of better.

People like you. If you’re ready to start shaping a more sustainable future, you can also start our Sustainable Engineering MSc in January.
