Sustainable Technology

The courses in the programme cover a range of interdisciplinary subjects connected to industrial ecology, introducing you to tools and knowledge that enable you to apply technology more sustainably. The first semester consists of mandatory courses. They will give you insight into the concepts of industrial ecology, ecosystems, and the impact of socio-technical systems, as well as system analysis tools used in decision-making and a good base for scientific work. You will gain hands-on experience with tools like material flow analysis (MFA), life cycle assessment (LCA), scenario methodologies such as back-casting, and environmental modelling, equipping you to design sustainable systems.During your third and fourth semester, you can specialise in technology-oriented topics like environmental modelling and cleaner production, or management-oriented areas such as environmental management systems and sustainability strategy. You can also mix courses from different areas to acquire broad knowledge in industrial ecology.In the final semester, you complete your master’s degree project. The project is carried out either in an academic environment (university, research institute, or equivalent) or in a public or industrial setting (municipality, city, power plant, consulting agency or other industry/business). While suitable degree project topics may be proposed and assigned by programme lecturers or specialists from related industries and companies, you are encouraged to define your own projects and seek environments where these can be successfully carried out.
