Environmental Engineering
The skills of environmental engineers are required to help protect the fragile resources of our planet and promote the sustainability of our lifestyles and our economies. Environmental engineers apply physical, chemical, and biological processes to design systems to destroy toxic substances, remove pollutants from water, manage non-hazardous solid waste, eliminate contaminants from the air, and develop drinking water supplies. In this field, engineers are called upon to design treatment facilities to produce clean water of municipal, agricultural, commercial and industrial use as well as clean the water created by these segments of society. They remove hazardous materials from groundwater and soil, prevent air pollution, model and protect receiving waters, and manage solid wastes.
