Course content

Ensuring the sustainable provision of water and sanitation is one of the greatest global challenges of the 21st century. By drawing on our cutting-edge research, real-life problem-solving experiences and extensive practitioner input, the Water and Sanitation for Development MSc will provide you with the tools to help solve this challenge.

The course provides a unique balance of engineering, environmental science, public health and social science, and therefore provides you with the skills and knowledge to plan and implement water supply and sanitation projects and programmes in any part of the world, particularly in low- and middle-income countries. A key part of the MSc is the opportunity to conduct your thesis on a real-life project in a developing country.
