环境工程理学硕士

MS环境工程课程的学生可以专注于水质，处理和基础设施，综合场地修复或多学科环境工程。环境工程师是废水和饮用水处理厂，固体废物处理系统，场地修复和排放控制措施以及其他类似项目的规划，设计和建设的重要参与者。大型公司，政府机构，私人咨询和建筑公司以及大学只是雇用环境工程师的组织之一。对环境工程的深入了解对于专业实践和研究至关重要。具有各种学术和专业实践经验的全职教职人员，以及由各自领域的专家担任的辅助教员讲授课程。对硕士研究感兴趣或继续攻读博士学位的学生应考虑与大学相关主要研究中心之一的教职员工合作。
Environmental engineers work hard to turn back the clock to a time when we breathed cleaner air and drank cleaner water. They work closely with business leaders and government officials to institute new air pollution standards that reduce harmful emissions from factories without negatively impacting industrial output. Environmental engineers design complex treatment systems that remove contaminants from our air, water, and wastewater. They also examine the quality of our soil, assuring us that harmful toxins do not seep up through the ground we walk on. Environmental engineers work with agricultural businesses to assure consumers that pesticides and soil nutrients do not affect the quality of the food we eat. They also assure residents of new developments that homes have not been built on contaminated land.<br>Research and/or Practice: Alumni will successfully engage in research and/or practice of environmental engineering within industry, government, and private practice, working toward sustainable solutions in one or more technical specialty. Alumni will be able to synthesize technical knowledge of engineering analysis and design to identify, formulate and solve problems of professional interest and importance.
