Tomsk Polytechnic University

Ecology and Environmental Management

Educational program “Environmental engineering and sustainability”

The goal of the program is to train highly qualified specialists of international level capable to analyze and evaluate environmental consequences of production processes, including the impact and risk assessment, and product life cycle analysis. The program is being implemented with the participation of foreign specialists and with the use of facilities and resources of “Uranium Geology” international scientific and learning center (TPU). The program focuses on R&D and engineering and production activities.

Training program Environmental Engineering and Sustainability

Training for international-level specialists able to analyze and evaluate the geological and environmental consequences of operational processes, including environmental impact, risks, and product life cycle.

Scientific research is carried out in terms of development of the Siberian Geochemical and Tomsk Radiogeochemical schools. Professors and lecturers have experience in Russia and abroad (France, Norway, China, Mongolia, USA).

Students have an opportunity to study at partner universities as part of academic mobility programs. Operational practices are held in companies, environmental enterprises and research institutions. Graduates can continue their studies with TPU postgraduate program and in a joint postgraduate program with foreign universities to obtain Candidate of Science and PhD degrees.
