What you study

Environmental engineering deals with developing technologies to reduce pollution and prevent deterioration in the quality of the environment in terms of water, air, and soil. This is done by protecting water sources, controlling air pollution, desalinating brackish water and seawater, treating municipal wastewater and sludge, disposing of and recycling solid waste, improving industrial production processes to reduce sources of air, water, and soil pollution, and more. Degree subjects include foundational courses in mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology, and computer science; core and advanced courses in environmental engineering fields, including water, wastewater, and waste treatment, air pollution and its prevention, chemical engineering processes, biotechnology, fluid mechanics, hydrology, ecology, and soil science.
