Programme objectives

We warmly welcome any student from abroad who is interested in environmental issues.

With the entry into force of the German "Circular Economy Act" on 1st June 2012, waste management has now fundamentally changed into closed-cycle management.

Its waste generation and waste management are carried out with particular attention to the sparing use of natural resources and protection of the people and the environment.

In particular, graduates will acquire competence in the fields of waste prevention, waste utilisation and waste treatment.
