Bachelor of Engineering Technology, Environmental Studies at Cape Breton University

The Lamar University Master of Science Degree in Environmental Engineering will teach you to use science and engineering principles to improve the environment and to clean polluted sites. 

In this program, you will learn about water and air pollution control, recycling, waste disposal, and public health issues as well as a knowledge of environmental engineering law. It also includes studies on the environmental impact of proposed construction projects. You'll be able to conduct hazardous-waste management studies to evaluate the significance of the such hazards, advise on treatment and containment, and develop regulations to prevent mishaps. You can design municipal water supply and industrial wastewater treatment systems and be aware of local and worldwide environmental issues such as the effects of acid rain, ozone depletion, water pollution and air pollution from automobile exhausts and industrial sources.

UToledo’s environmental engineering bachelor’s degree program prepares students to create sustainable cities and protect our air, water and land. We strive to educate environmental engineers to become agents of change — to not only reduce the environmental footprint, but to create a “positive handprint.”

Environmental engineers integrate principles of engineering, mathematics, earth science, soil science, life science, and materials science with emphasis on the design and development of solutions to environmental challenges, such as improvement of water, air pollution control, safe disposal of wastes, and the stewardship of our natural resources.
