Specialisation Environmental and Biobased Technology

Environmental and Biobased Technology focuses on biotechnological applications during degradation of waste and production of valuable products or energy from renewable resources.

You will take one year of courses, some compulsory and others optional. In the second year of the MSc you will perform two research projects: a major thesis at Wageningen University and a second research project or internship inside or outside Wageningen.
