Bachelor of Applied Science in Environmental Engineering (Co-op)

University of Waterloo

Ready to help solve some of the world’s most pressing energy, climate change, and sustainability challenges. Environmental engineers are making a difference At Waterloo, you’ll merge your strengths in math and physics with biology and chemistry, then put them to use with the latest technology to address problems at the interface between engineered and natural systems. Meanwhile, you’ll gain two years of paid experience through six co op work terms. Find out how to develop food, water, air and energy systems that protect our health while also helping to protect and restore the world around us. You'll gain the skills needed to design smarter water treatment and distribution systems, clean contaminated soil, or even build a better city. By graduation, you'll be ready for a future in energy sustainability analysis, pollution control and restoration, water resource engineering, air quality modelling, and more. If providing solutions to pressing problems such as climate change, unequal access to clean drinking water, and global decreases in biodiversity is your passion, you’re in the right place. Lead the way to a more sustainable future with this in demand field.
