MEnvE 5 year Program - Curriculum & Flow Chart
The Environmental Engineering Profession
Environmental Engineering is focused on the prevention and remediation of air, water, and soil contamination problems to reduce the risks to human health, water resources, and ecosystems. Environmental Engineering is a discipline that evolved from Civil Engineering and includes aspects of the sciences (Biology, Chemistry, and Geo sciences) Professional opportunities exist in consulting engineering firms, industries with significant environmental compliance challenges, and in governmental regulatory agencies. Environmental engineers apply physical, chemical, and biological processes in systems that remove and/or destroy pollutants in water, air, and soils and that reduce nonhazardous solid waste volumes. Specific assignments include provision for safe drinking water, treatment and disposal of municipal wastewaters, treatment and management of storm runoff, management of solid and hazardous wastes, and cleaning sites contaminated by hazardous materials.
