BSE Environmental Engineering

The Bachelor of Science in Engineering in Environmental Engineering (BSE EnvE) program is dedicated to producing tomorrow’s leaders – those who will help society meet the challenges of global resource limitations and human environmental impacts. With a BSE EnvE, students are prepared for a career position in engineering consulting, government agencies, humanitarian organizations and much more. Environmental engineering is predicted to have one of the highest growth rates among all engineering disciplines in a few years. “Environmental engineering, in addition to being a rapidly developing field, also delivers the perfect balance of a technical degree with practical applications,” Environmental Engineering Student Hema Karunakaram says. This program gives students an opportunity to focus on sustainable infrastructure systems – such as water, sanitation and air quality – that protect human health and natural resources for current and coming generations. “I’d always known I wanted to study something related to the environment and sustainability, and work in a field where I could have positive and tangible impacts on the ecological and human systems around me,” Environmental Engineering Student Diana Bach says.
