MS in Environmental Engineering

The Master of Science in Environmental Engineering emphasizes engineering analysis and design of both technological and management-oriented solutions to environmental problems, while broadly addressing the fundamental science and regulatory aspects of the field. A minimum of 30 credit hours beyond the baccalaureate degree is required. For full-time graduate students, six credit hours may involve research and completion of a master's thesis, with approval from the student's adviser, with an additional 24 credit hours of course work. The program also has the flexibility to meet the needs of part-time students, already working in industry, who typically take the non-thesis route requiring 30 credit hours of course work. All environmental graduate courses are offered with evening class times and via distance education to accommodate the busy schedules of working professionals.
