Environmental Engineering

Environmental engineers play a pivotal role in improving polluted environments, designing facilities that directly affect our modern economy, public health and safety, and designing environmentally-responsible products and processes. Their knowledge of physics, chemistry, and biological processes allows them to address problems such as protecting air, water and land quality; providing safe drinking water; treating and disposing of industrial wastes; preventing environmental problems by designing 'cleaner' manufacturing processes; and developing alternative energy sources. Engineers with a firm knowledge of environmental processes and solutions are widely sought after by employers in both industry and government.
