Location of University of Greenwich
The broad-based first year of this programme encompasses a solid engineering foundation that covers both principles and practice. In the second year, this broad theme continues alongside specialist courses that explore technical aspects of public health engineering, as well as issues of environment, sustainability and health and the underpinning legislation. For instance, the Water Supply and Distribution course in year 2 covers applications such as fire-safety systems and sanitary installations. Waste Water and Drainage includes drainage systems above and below ground, as well as specialist applications such as rainwater systems.
An optional sandwich year is available at the end of the year 2.
In the final year, Applications of Public Health Engineering covers a selection of public health engineering systems. Among the subjects investigated are the safe design and operation of swimming pools and water recycling. Both the individual project and the group design project focus on real public health systems in industry. The efficient use of resources, sustainability and environmental impact are also key elements in this programme.
Career options
Graduates have opportunities in industry, building, health services, local authorities and the voluntary sector.

IELTS
You are normally required to take an English Proficiency Test.
Most European Universities recognise the IELTS test.
Take testRequirements
Applicants should have:
180 UCAS points FROM
EITHER A-levels, that should include mathematics and / or a science or technology subject
OR an AVCE in engineering
OR a BTEC National Diploma at MMP
OR equivalent qualifications.
PLUS at least three GSCEs at grade C or above (including mathematics, English and science), or equivalent qualifications.
• A foundation year is available for students who do not meet the standard criteria for entry to this degree.
Language skills
If English is not your first language, you will need to provide proof of your fluency in English before you can begin a programme. The main systems for measuring this are IELTS with a minimum score of 6.0 for degree programmes or TOEFL with a minimum score of 550 for degree programmes. Recently the TOEFL computer-based test has been abolished to make way for the introduction of the Internet-based test, gradually eliminating the traditional paper-based method. Other qualifications may be satisfactory. We can tell you what is acceptable.
