地质工程学学士-地下水水文学和污染物输送

作为一名地质工程专业的学生，​​您将重点研究地下水水文学和污染物的运输，您将了解地下污染问题和地下水供应问题，并特别关注地下水井的钻井和监测以及进行抽水测试以确定含水层的特征。您将有许多旅行和进行野外工作的机会，例如在世界各地的贫困和农村地区开发安全的饮用水供应。
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.
