You might for example have a background in Civil Engineering and work on meaningful projects on disaster-resilient housing or infrastructures. Or you might have completed a Bachelor’s in the field of Biomedical Engineering and want to contribute to health-related projects in low-income countries, like building medical devices suited for low-resource settings. Or perhaps you are an electrical engineer and you are devoted to improving the connectivity or energy resources for off-grid communities. If you have a background in social sciences, you could – depending on your background – also be admitted into the Master’s in Humanitarian Engineering, as knowledge in social sciences is highly relevant in developing appropriate solutions addressing the underserved. You might then, for example, focus on engineering projects combined with sustainable and responsible entrepreneurship.
In this two-year, English-taught master’s, you will develop an eye for the needs of underserved and marginalised communities in order to find and adapt technical solutions to suit their needs. Because without awareness of the local context, stakeholders and resources, engineering solutions may fall short of being effective or sustainable. So next to building technological knowhow, you will learn to integrate cultural, social, and economic factors into your design process, ensuring that the technologies are both practical and impactful.
Na studia magisterskie mogą kandydować wszyscy, którzy ukończyli studia licencjackie lub inżynierskie (studia I stopnia), studia magisterskie lub studiują na ostatnim roku studiów I-stopnia. Studia, które planujesz powinny mieć zbliżony profil do tych obecnych lub ukończonych, ponieważ w procesie rekrutacji kluczowa jest ich zgodność programowa.

IELTS - 6.5
Bachelor of Science, or equivalent, in programmes with relevant and sufficient coverage of subjects such as mathematics or statistics.
The demand for engineers with a commitment to social impact is growing as pressing global challenges such as climate change, natural disasters, poverty, hunger, conflicts and population displacement increase. So, with a Master’s degree in Humanitarian Engineering you have excellent prospects for a meaningful career in various fields, both nationally and internationally.
There is need for humanitarian engineers both in the public and private sector, as well as non-governmental organisations (NGOs) and international bodies. Of course, you can also continue with a PhD after your master’s and pursue a career as a researcher, at UT or any other university worldwide, or at a research institution. Or what about starting up your own social business and launch an innovative solution to address humanitarian challenges? The choice is up to you!
