Environmental engineers have classically been charged with treating the water we drink and cleaning up or preventing pollution of our air, water, and soil. The field now additionally addresses how to secure a sustainable future through the application of science and technology. For such a challenging career, strengths in mathematics and physics are always a must, as in any engineering profession, but interest in biology, chemistry, geology, geography and exploration are equally important.While similar to many other disciplines studying the earth (such as biology, geology, geography, ecology) through field exploration, laboratory and computer modelling investigations, environmental engineers also benefit from the quantitative methods of mathematics and physics to further advance their understanding. Unlike other disciplines in the natural sciences, environmental engineers use their knowledge to design and implement solutions that can be undertaken to remediate and restore the environment. Simply put, if you want to fix many of the world's environmental problems, environmental engineering is the profession to get it done<br><br>Canada's largest Environmental Engineering program gives you the technical rigour of an engineering degree combined with scientific know-how and environmental insights. As it's also one of the top 100 environmental engineering programs in the world (Shanghai World University Rankings 2020), youll take courses in engineering, chemistry, biology, geology, and more, drawing on that broad base of knowledge to tackle water, soil, and air pollution.Meanwhile, youll gain two years of paid experience through your co-op work terms, allowing you to earn money to help pay for your education and discover the career areas that fit you best.Youll graduate ready to clean up the world's pollution and to prevent future environmental problems.
