Master of Engineering in Environmental Engineering

The Master of Engineering in Environmental Engineering degree offers courses in environmental processes, soil and groundwater, environmental management, and environmental modeling.

The Environmental Processes courses address the treatment of industrial and domestic water and wastewater, and hazardous wastes. Process fundamentals are integrated with a design-based approach to meeting treatment objectives. Students will be prepared for careers in both design and operation of facilities for pollution control. Graduates with courses in this area are best qualified for design and operation work in public and private treatment facilities such as for drinking water, wastewater, and industrial wastes.

The Soil and Groundwater courses emphasize the transport and fate of contaminants in the subsurface environment and on engineering processes to mitigate their adverse environmental impact. Some specific areas of study in this direction are the modeling of contaminant transport in local or regional geohydrologic systems, the impact of contamination in the subsurface environment, the management of municipal and industrial waste disposal, and the remediation of groundwater and soil. Many of our graduates with coursework in this area work in remediation of contaminated properties or of groundwater resources.

Master?s candidates without a previous engineering degree will be allowed to enroll for the Master of Engineering in Environmental Engineering if they have a bachelor?s degree in a relevant science discipline. These students may be required to take bridge courses (not for credit towards the degree) designed by their faculty advisor to ensure four semesters of college level calculus, two semesters of college level chemistry, and possibly additional engineering courses, depending on their undergraduate background.
