MSc/Diploma in Air Pollution Management & Control

University of Birmingham

A part-time or full-time postgraduate programme that aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of all aspects of air pollution, its management and control. The course describes the underpinning basic science of the atmosphere, both its physics and its chemistry, needed to understand air pollution and its dispersal. It explains the causes and the effects/impacts of air pollution, its management from local to international levels, and the engineering controls used to reduce emissions from industry and transport. Research methods are introduced and there is the opportunity to go into greater depth in a particular chosen area through a literature review and a research project.
