BACHELOR OF ENGINEERING IN ENVIRONMENTAL ENGINEERING
The ASU Environmental Engineering Program teaches students about the technology and tools required to practice Professional Environmental Engineering. Environmental issues are a global challenge faced by all countries. Environmental engineers apply science and engineering principles to improve the natural environment to provide clean water, air and land for human habitation. They work on air pollution control, water and wastewater treatment, waste management, alternative energy and conservation in both the public and private sectors. This program aims to fulfil the growing demand for qualified environmental engineers. Emphasis of the ASU Environmental Engineering Program is placed on engineering, scientific, and technical courses so that the requirements for professional-engineering licensure are met. The curriculum was chosen to concentrate on the application of environmental engineering principles to the solution of real world environmental-engineering problems.
