Bachelor's Degree in Environment and Sustainable Development
At UniLaSalle, our students' motto is #JeVeuxAgirPourLaPlanète... which is why the environment and sustainable development play a central role in our training courses.
At UniLaSalle, the environment and sustainable development are at the heart of all our courses. Whether you're studying geology, agronomy, digital engineering, food & health or environmental engineering, you'll be tackling these issues and applying them to projects, internships and, of course, your professional life.
Engineering and Bachelor's students in Environmental Engineering are trained to help economic players change their business models. At the heart of the challenges of ecological & environmental transition and the circular economy, they work on processes to improve air, water & soil quality, to better recycle & recover waste and to develop renewable energies. Their areas of expertise include reducing the impact of human activity, creating new models, improving environmental performance, sustainable regional development, optimizing treatment and depollution processes, and eco-design.
The environment also plays an important role in the training of our agronomy engineers, notably through agro-ecology, a system that relies on ecosystems to produce while limiting pressure on the environment.
As far as geologists are concerned, the environment plays an important role in geotechnical diagnoses carried out prior to infrastructure construction projects (roads, bridges, etc.) or in the clean-up of polluted soils.
ESIEE-Amiens-UniLaSalle engineers work to analyze, design and integrate electrical systems while taking sustainable development aspects into account; they choose the most appropriate energy source, taking into account environmental protection criteria and economic constraints.

The objectives of environmental training at UniLaSalle Rennes
For over 30 years, the UniLaSalle Rennes campus has been training experts committed to a more sustainable future, thereby contributing to the common good and protecting our environment.
Our training programs, which are 100% dedicated to environmental protection, have a number of objectives to prepare students to understand, analyze and act on environmental issues.
Through its educational programs, UniLaSalle Rennes aims to train competent professionals who are aware of environmental issues and capable of contributing to the creation of sustainable solutions to preserve the planet.
Here are just a few of the current objectives of our bac+3 to bac+6 courses:
1. Understanding environmental issues
The programs aim to provide a thorough understanding of current environmental issues, including climate change, biodiversity, air and water pollution, waste management, and more.
2. Technical expertise
Training courses aim to develop specific technical skills related to the environment, such as data analysis, natural resource management, environmental policy design, understanding and complying with French and European regulations, etc.
3. Sustainable solutions
Students are encouraged to develop skills for designing and implementing sustainable solutions to environmental challenges in energy, waste management, biodiversity conservation, or other related fields.
4. Raising awareness of social and economic issues
Programs systematically include a social and economic dimension to raise students' awareness of the human and economic implications of environmental issues.
5. Developing communication skills
The training courses are designed to enhance students' communication skills, as raising public awareness and effectively transmitting information are important aspects of any environmental professional's role.
6. Practical experience
All our training courses include internships, research projects or work experience through sandwich courses, for example, to provide students with practical, hands-on experience in the environmental field.
7. Ethics and responsibility
Programs generally emphasize professional ethics and social responsibility, encouraging students to act ethically and consider the social impact of their decisions.
The Environment, a common base for many UniLaSalle courses
In line with the Uni4change strategy, which commits all the Institut Polytechnique UniLaSalle's activities to ecological and societal transformation, all the Institut Polytechnique UniLaSalle's engineering and Bachelor's degree courses develop scientific and technical skills in the environment and sustainable development.
