Program Description:

Environmental health engineering focuses on identifying, evaluating, and rectifying environmental problems that have a discernible impact on public health. It is concerned with how both natural and human-made phenomena affect human health by seeking the impact of physical, chemical and biological factors of the environment on humans. The central idea is that many threats to human health are related to the environment, and the most effective way to alleviate the threat is to prevent or remediate the underlying environmental problem. Degrees in environmental health engineering are offered at the bachelor's, master's and doctoral levels.

Students at the master's level often choose a specialty, such as water, wastewater, air pollution and solid waste management. Most programs require students to present a thesis project before graduating.
