MSc Water and Wastewater Engineering

Course Director: Dr Andreas Nocker, a.nocker@cranfield.ac.uk ___________________________________________________________________________________ We look forward to meeting you in October at the start of your course in Water & Wastewater Engineering. You will realize soon that Cranfield is special in the sense that we have close links with a great number of different companies and organizations and try to provide an education that meets the employability requirements in industry while at the same time providing an enjoyable and stimulating academic environment. Please find below a range of books and information resources that you may find of interest. On arrival at Cranfield you will be provided with a more complete reading list for each module, but the following are books that you may find useful. You are not expected to read all of them, but the list might give you the chance to start familiarising yourself with the areas that will be new to you.
