Environmental Engineering, BSE

Arizona State University - Kaplan International

STEM-classified degree: graduates are eligible for 3 years of Optional Practical Training (OPT) in the USA. This program is accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET. The BSE program in environmental engineering educates students to become tomorrow's engineers who solve complex environmental problems and design systems at the human, urban and planetary scale.Environmental engineers are actively involved with the following topics and activities: air quality monitoring and air pollution control technology analysis of the fate and transport of pollutants application of sustainable design principles design and operation of water and wastewater treatment systems design of hazardous waste containment systems design of solid waste management systems remediation of contaminated soil, sediment and water and water quality, water conservation and water reuse.In recognition of the interdisciplinary nature of environmental engineering challenges, the degree program incorporates courses from humanities, social sciences, natural sciences, mathematics, and engineering. Environmental engineering courses build on strong foundations in chemistry, microbiology, geology, physics and mathematics. Courses cover fundamental engineering concepts applied to environmental processes and environmental engineering design as well as applied learning experiences, including a required internship or research experience and a capstone design course.
