Testimonials
I am grateful for the opportunity to study Hydrogeology and Environmental Engineering as a Master's degree at one of the world ranking universities, the TU Darmstadt. Selecting the international study programme TropHEE is the best decision I have made to expand my knowledge on key aspects of groundwater geology for my career path.
TropHEE is a very practical degree with a strong element of solving environmental related problems. Majorly, the many ways in which water can be sustained to avoid depletion is of utmost priority.
