The primary goal of the MS in Environmental Engineering is to prepare professionals to plan, functionally design, control, operate and manage municipal and industrial systems of pollution prevention. Specific objectives of the program are to provide the skills necessary to:

 

• Fundamentally understand the science and engineering of natural and man-made environmental systems
• Functionally design air, water and waste treatment systems and components
• Control and operate environmental facilities
• Understand the modeling and simulation of environmental systems
• Actively participate in a multidisciplinary teams to solve environmental problems

Students are exposed to a learning atmosphere that provides a meaningful mix of theoretical and practical approaches. Courses include a mix of presentations, project exercises and practical problem solutions.
