地质工程学学士-环境保护和危险废物管理

作为注重环境保护和危险废物管理的地质工程专业的学生，​​您将学习如何保护和保护地球，并特别关注危险废物的清理，地下水修复和地质灾害。从湿地保护到铅污染土壤的清理，您将有许多野外工作机会。
Geological engineers work on a variety of projects that involve the earth and its resources. For example, a geological engineer may be involved in the design of a project to protect wetlands. A geological engineer may be involved in the cleanup of lead-contaminated soil that threatens peoples' homes. Geological engineers may develop safe drinking water supplies in parts of the world where infant mortality is many times higher than it is in the United States. Geological engineers work on protecting infrastructure like bridges, buildings and utilities from earthquake or landslide damage. Geological engineers evaluate the use of naturally occurring materials like clay to prevent the spread of subsurface contamination. Geological engineers help develop renewable energy resources – even in space – to conserve traditional sources of energy. Geological engineers work with the environment to improve conditions for everyone and the world around us.
