The department aims to provide high-quality education. This education meets the needs of industry and the public. It improves understanding of environmental science. It also supports sustainable economic growth. This betters society through teaching research and outreach. The Environmental Engineering undergraduate program is accredited. ABET’s Engineering Accreditation Commission accredits it.
Environmental engineering addresses many issues. These issues include climate change acidification and ecotoxicity. It solves local regional and global environmental problems. It also develops new tech and methods. Environmental engineers consider resource consumption. They also deal with exceeding carrying capacity. These are 21st-century sustainability challenges. The department develops new tech to project and solve problems.
Environmental engineering includes technical economic and legal aspects. It also considers administrative political social and cultural dimensions. The department plays a key role in policy development. It also helps with implementation. It combines engineering and management tools.
