Concern for the environment influences a wide range of public, private and engineering decisions. Environmental Engineering is widely recognized as a discipline at the graduate and professional level, and undergraduate training in environmental issues and processes can provide the preparation necessary to pursue this career path, or serve as a useful complement to a career in any of the traditional engineering areas.

Preparation in Environmental Engineering requires broad knowledge and skills in the areas of environmental science, environmental engineering and environmental policy. Course requirements from each of these areas are included as part of the program for the Environmental Engineering minor.

Course Requirements

The requirements include two science-oriented courses, three engineering courses, and two policy courses. Three of the five science and engineering courses must be from outside the student’s major department to ensure a diversity of exposure. The two policy courses are counted as part of the courses in the areas of humanities, social sciences, or fine arts required of all CIT students.
