Master of Engineering - Environmental EngineeringSchool of Engineering and ScienceEnvironmental engineering has traditionally been taught as a branch of civil engineering concerned with the supply of safe drinking water and the sanitary disposal of municipal wastes. The field has expanded in recent years to include many new areas, such as the treatment of industrial and hazardous wastes, the prediction of the fate and transport of pollutants in the environment, and the design of systems for remediation of sites contaminated with hazardous wastes. This has placed new demands on engineers to understand the fundamental environmental transformation processes that describe natural and engineered systems.
The Environmental Engineering graduate program is divided into three areas of concentration: Environmental Processes, Groundwater and Soil Pollution Control, and Inland and Coastal Environmental Hydrodynamics. The Master in Environmental Engineering requires 30 graduate credits in an approved plan of study. Credits can be obtained by performing research in the form of a master’s thesis. All courses listed below are for 3 credits unless otherwise noted.
The courses shown in bold could be taken via Stevens online WebCampus or at the local university before the student comes to the Stevens campus.
Core Courses:
Students take 4 courses in one of the following Concentrations:
The remaining three courses are electives selected in consultation with the academic advisor. Electives may be concentrated in specific areas, including:
