The goal of the graduate programs is two folds. First is to establish active research and technology development programs for identification and solution of current and future environmental and engineering problems. Second is to provide trained human resources with advanced technical knowledge capable of making decisions and directing protects towards solutions of complex environmental problems. The graduate programs offer two major areas of specialization, Environmental Sciences, and Environmental Technology. These specialization programs in the department complement each other to an extent not commonly seen in many other scientific disciplines. Under the two major graduate programs research opportunities and advanced coursework are offered to qualified students in the following specific areas: water supply engineering, wastewater engineering, air pollution and control, water quality management, soil and groundwater pollution, environmental modeling, environmental impact assessment, environmental chemistry and environmental microbiology and biotechnology.
