Environmental Engineer, Specialization in Water and Wastewater Engineering (Co-op) 180 ce
The course commences with an introduction on the topic of automation. This is so that you can quickly get a general outline of the subject and a better understanding of subsequent courses. Exciting project work is a part of many of the courses, which is a normal form of study both at the University and in working life in the future.
Possible changes in the courses may occur. If you are reading a course with a "Co-op" experience then the course is four years long. For further information see the course plan that describes your studies

Life Cycle Assessment 7.5 cr
Field Environmental Engineering
|
The course provides a profound theoretical review of life cycle assessment as a method to assess potential environmental impacts from cradle to grave for products and services. The course covers methods, uses and limitations of a life cycle analysis as well as a review of various environmental impact categories. In a laboratory experiment and a project assignment, students will implement a simplified life cycle analysis using a computer-based tool for a selected product. In an assignment students are trained to review, analyze and compare different life cycle analyzes of such system boundaries, data selection, data uncertainty, etc.
