About the Environmental Engineering Master’s Program
The M.Env.E. is an ABET-accredited 154-hour freshman-to-master’s degree program specializing in environmental engineering. It is a design-oriented program that culminates in a comprehensive design problem rather than a research-oriented thesis.
The major focus areas of water supply resources, environmental chemistry, wastewater management, solid waste management, hazardous waste management, air pollution control, and environmental health are included in specific advanced and graduate-level courses within the curriculum. Students choosing the M.Env.E. degree are formally admitted to the upper-division courses after faculty review at the end of the second curriculum year. Students must pass the Graduate Record Examination and meet the university’s Graduate School admission requirements before enrolling in graduate-level courses. Students who do not achieve admission to the Graduate School may receive the non-accredited Bachelor of Science in Environmental Engineering, which comprises all the undergraduate courses shown in the M.Env.E. curriculum.
