This postgraduate programme is designed to provide students with a comprehensive understanding of all aspects of air pollution, its management and control.
It provides all the necessary underpinning basic science of the atmosphere, both its physics and its chemistry, needed to understand air pollution and its dispersal. It explains the causes and the effects/impacts of air pollution, its management from local to international levels, and the engineering controls used to reduce emissions from industry and transport. The student is also introduced to research methods and has the opportunity to go into greater depth in a particular chosen area through a literature review and a research project.
This programme is a collaborative endeavour with the Environmental Health and Atmospheric Science groups within the School of Geography, Earth and Environmental Sciences and the Department of Chemical Engineering.
The degree is offered on a full-time (1 year) and part-time (2 year) basis. The Postgraduate Diploma is offered on a part time (1 year) basis.
