The Master of Science program in Environmental Engineering is an interdisciplinary engineering degree program that is administered by a director and a steering committee from the engineering departments. Other faculty members from the School of Sciences and Engineering participate in the program. It provides a broad program of study in preparation for careers in advanced engineering areas in addition to in depth knowledge in Environmental Engineering with a strong research component. Graduates will be prepared for Ph.D. studies or for research and leadership in government, industry and international consulting companies.
Program Objectives
The objectives of the Master of Science in Environmental Engineering graduate program are to provide the graduates of the program with:
- A broad knowledge of modern computational and experimental methods in engineering.
- Extensive knowledge in fundamental environmental engineering science, the interactions of pollutants in water, air, and subsurface environments, and the design of treatment/pollutant remediation systems.
- In-depth understanding of the research methods and data analysis in one of the areas of environmental engineering noted above.
- An ability to solve unstructured engineering problems of social significance, think critically, and function well in a team.
- A high and ethical standard of written and oral communication on technical matters.
Admission
A candidate for the master’s program in environmental engineering must have a Bachelor’s degree in engineering. Admission is also subject to the general university requirements for graduate study, including English language proficiency. A minimum GPA of 3.0 out of 4.0 is required for full admission into the master’s program. Students who have some deficiency in their undergraduate training but are will-qualified in other aspects may be admitted provisionally. The program director may prescribe a program of noncredit work to make up for the deficiency.
