Program Educational Outcomes:

Environmental Engineering graduates will be recognized for their:

leadership, achievement and involvement in engineering and related professions, through service in private and public agencies and in research and academic institutions;
dedication to enhance the engineering profession through continuous self-improvement;
commitment to working toward engineering a sustainable environment for New York and the world; and
ethical practices and professionalism.

Degree Requirements:

Students can obtain a masters degree in environmental engineering with concentrations in process engineering, water quality modeling, geoenvironmental engineering or environmental project management. For the degree, a student must complete thirty credits of course work including the four required core courses: ENVG 505, 506, 700, 706. In addition, students are required to complete a minimum of three courses with upper-level engineering design content from the following list of courses: ENVG 703, 704, 712, 718, 736, 740. Electives may be selected from other offerings in environmental engineering, from select courses in construction management (COMG 604, 611, 614, 618), or from other graduate courses with the advice and approval of the Program Director.

Admission Requirements:

Master of Engineering (Environmental Engineering) Degree: Applicants must possess a baccalaureate degree in engineering from a program accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology or from a recognized foreign institution. Applicants must present adequate preparation in two courses in chemistry, one course in physics, three courses in calculus, differential equations, one course in computer applications, fluid mechanics, and principles of environmental engineering. These undergraduate courses must be completed with a minimum grade point average of 3.00 with no grade lower than a C. These prerequisite courses will not satisfy any requirements for the Master of Engineering (Environmental Engineering) degree. Generally, students must complete the appropriate prerequisite courses before they may register for the designated graduate courses.
