Environmental Engineering
Our planet and our societies have been evolving tremendously in the past decades. We are now facing major challenges for the durability of our environment and our world.
The crucial questions to address lie at the interface between anthropic activities and their impacts on natural resources: climate change, scarsity of resources such as drinking water, pollution, growth of human population or loss of biodiversity, in particular. Our students and research are working on providing answer to these environmental problems.
