Master's thesis projects at Härnösand Energi & Miljö

Härnösand Energi & Miljö offers master's thesis projects in drinking water supply, sewage management, stormwater and sewers.

Master's thesis projects at the Water Centre for Innovation

The Water Centre for Innovation is located on Campus Roslagen in Norrtälje. Currently, it offers three possibilities for master's thesis projects:

Modeling of a new type of stormwater pipes

Are you interested in stormwater modeling and methods that can mitigate the risk of flooding when it rains and facilitate local infiltration of stormwater? Then maybe this master's thesis project is something for you.

Degradation of macroplastics to microplastics upon exposure to sunlight

Jonathan Svedin who studied the master's engineering program Natural Resources Engineering with specialization on Environment and Water at Luleå University of Technology has now completed his master's degree. He has conducted a laboratory study investigating the extent to which different types of plastic debris are degraded due to UV light.

Sensitivity analysis of pluvial flood modelling tools for dense urban areas

Johanna Eriksson has now finalised her masters’ thesis work. She has carried out a project related to flood modelling at the Department of Sustainable Waste and Water in the City of Gothenburg.

Interpolation of probing data for groundwater modelling

Frida Agerberg who has studied the master´s programme Natural Resource Engineering specializing in environment and water recently published her master’s thesis “Data interpolation for groundwater modelling - How choice of interpolation method and sample size affect the modelling results” that she had worked on during the spring semester 2020.

Swedish Water Award for best master's thesis

Emelie Hedlund Nilsson, former student at Luleå University of Technology Master Programme in Natural Resources Engineering, wins the Swedish Water Award for best master's thesis in urban water engineering. The winner is awarded SEK 25,000.

Master's thesis published on water supply in the archipelago

Ronja Eränen has studied the master program Natural Resource Engineering at Luleå University of Technology and has now finalized her master’s thesis about water supply in the archipelago.
