Environmental Engineering

If you want the opportunity to work at a job that can take you into the field and out of the office, then environmental engineering may be just right for you. Environmental engineers explore answers to problems like meeting clean water supply needs and protecting public health, addressing the air pollution issues of acid rain and global warming, and reducing pollution. They are in high demand in industry and government.

In addition to the bachelor of science degree, Clarkson also offers graduate degrees in civil and environmental engineering, and environmental science and engineering.

At Clarkson, you will benefit from our excellent placement rate, extensive connections with employers, and a faculty who are teachers and researchers, and who include undergraduates in their research. A Clarkson engineering education builds on teamwork, management, communication, leadership and creative problem solving. Clarkson students tackle complex, real-world challenges through hands-on, multidisciplinary competitions. Choose among 14 different projects through our SPEED (Student Projects for Engineering Experience and Design) program.

Clarkson's Center for the Environment (CCE) adds exceptional value for environmental engineering students. It promotes and supports campus-wide educational and research activities on the environment by applying expertise from many different disciplines.
