Graduation & Degree Requirements
Master’s candidates are expected to complete 34 credits of approved graduate-level course work, including required 28 compulsory credits and an acceptable dissertation. In consultation with a faculty adviser, M.S. students select a program of at least 34 points of credits of graduate courses appropriate to their career goals and incorporating core requirements and complete at least 6 months company intern.
The core program includes at least 4 compulsory courses, 3 public elementary courses, selective courses, company internship report and environmental engineering simulation operating practice. Students whose backgrounds are not Environmental Engineering are required to take prerequisite courses including Water Pollution Control Engineering, Air Pollution Control Engineering, and Solid Waste Disposal Projects.
Candidates must complete literature review and master-degree proposal before December in the third semester. The time between proposal and defense must be more than 12 months.
Career Prospect:
The vast majority of graduates find jobs in oil and petrochemical companies working in production, management and research in environmental protection. In these roles you can, for instance, work in management in Political Department, environmental planning and design of enterprises or cities in Planning Department and Design Units, execution in Environmental Protection Department, construction, design, operation and control in Industrial and Mining Enterprises, and research and development in Research Units.
