Education of Environmental Technology

Relevant research disciplines are biotechnology, microbiology, surface chemistry, organic chemistry, chemical technology, physical technology, etc. We also consider the social impact of our work to be very relevant and therefore we co-operate with other University groups, such as Environmental Policy, Environmental Economy and Management Studies.

Students that want to do a bachelor or master thesis or a research practice at Environmental Technology, can choose from an extensive list of projects that are offered. To find a topic of interest you can see the brightspace page or:

• Find information on different project and contact the supervisor(s)
• Read more in our brochure

Internship positions can be found at the ETE Internships Brightspace site (only available for WUR students and employees). There you can discover and self-enroll at MSc Internships Environmental Technology. This is strongly advised for all students. All information about internships is provided through Brightspace.
