地质工程学学士学位

作为地质工程专业的学生，​​您将参加针对地球以及对地球资源和居民的关心的课程，这些课程经常包括野外工作。您还将选修与数学，化学，物理和力学相关的工程相关科目，并且可以期望在设计项目上花费大量时间。在环境保护和危险废物管理，地下水水文学和污染物运输，工程地质和岩土工程，石油，能源和自然资源以及采石工程等科学学士学位的重点领域。地质工程师从事涉及地球及其资源的各种项目。例如，地质工程师可能参与保护湿地的项目的设计。一名地质工程师可能参与了对威胁人们住所的铅污染土壤的清理工作。在婴儿死亡率比美国高出许多倍的世界
Geological engineers apply their skills in geology and engineering to projects that protect and preserve the earth and the environment in which we live. Do you like working outdoors Do you enjoy solving problems using your skills and creativity Do you like helping people and the environment Then you may be a good candidate for geological engineering 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.
