Environmental Systems Design (M.Eng.)

The Master of Engineering Degree in Environmental Systems Design prepares students for higher level professional practice in local and international markets, whether in private consulting practice, industry, or government and regulatory activities. 

Program Objectives

The objectives of the Master of Engineering Degree in Environmental Systems Design are to provide the graduates of the program with:

• 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 knowledge in an area of student interest deriving from one of the areas of environmental engineering noted above, including applications in environmental hydraulics, solid and hazardous waste engineering, and management of environmental control systems.

• Awareness of the local and global context in which environmental engineering is practiced, including economic and business practices, societal needs, and considerations of public health, safety, culture and ethics.

• 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

Admission requirements are the same as those for the Master of Science Program.
