BEE in short
The Master's
Degree Programme
Barents Environmental Engineering (BEE)
is a two-year programme of 120 ECTS at the Department of Process and
Environmental Engineering,
University of Oulu, Finland.
The BEE
programme (officially
called
Master’s Degree Programme (BCBU) in Environmental Engineering § 7) is based on
environmental, process and civil engineering subjects. The curriculum is
multidisciplinary, including subjects
ranging from ethics and
environmental legislation and engineering to process engineering, economics and
industrial ecology. The
programme has been developed and
is carried out in international co-operation with the
universities participating in the Barents Cross Border University
(BCBU) project in Norway, Sweden or Russia. BEE-students graduating
from the University of Oulu will be awarded a Degree of Master of Science in Technology.
The Barents Region
spreads over Northern
Finland, Norway, Sweden and Russia (see the map besides). It is rich in
natural resources and high in economic value. Its nature is ecologically
sensitive and regenerates slowly. Utilization of resources requires both
more environmentally friendly processes in industry and
innovative measures in environmental protection and restoration. BEE
aims to answer to these needs.
