Environmental Engineering

Studies available for students from Poland

Warsaw University of Life Sciences (SGGW) and Kazakh National Agrarian Research University (KazNAU) offers studies POlish-KAZakh International Joint Master in Environmental Engineering: “Modern engineering in water management”.

This program is a joint initiative of two Universities, which gain a founding from the Polish National Agency of Academic Exchange (NAWA). Giving the possibility of creating an extraordinary, world special program consisting of practical lectures organized in Poland and Kazakhstan.

During this program you will be able to apply for:

  • Scholarship for the mobility period
  • Intercultural workshops
  • Professional English language course

Aim of the study:

The Faculty of Civil and Environmental Engineering at SGGW, will launch the new international studies “Modern engineering in water management”. The study starts 1 st of March 2021. The Faculty of Civil and Environmental Engineering has the aim to offer the students holistic and interdisciplinary knowledge in the area of water management. Specialists from different faculties of Warsaw University of Life Sciences (SGGW) and from abroad will present the contents.
Studies are focused on both technical and ecological aspects of the environment, emphasizing the role of the human in shaping sustainable landscapes and ecosystems. Specifically, students will obtain a complex knowledge of the integral approach in water management in the age of environmental droughts and climate change. The program is divided into three semesters. It consists of lectures, seminars, workshops, labworks, and field research conducted in both partner countries: Poland and Kazakhstan.
