Bachelor of Science [B.S] [Environmental Engineering Technology] From University of Wisconsin

The BS degree in Environmental Engineering Technology at UW-Green Bay is an interdisciplinary program that prepares students for careers in applied environmental engineering using critical problem solving skills needed in regional and national industries, manufacturing, governmental, and engineering services firms. The focus of the program is the application of engineering principles to the solution of practical problems. Students will develop skills in hands on applications and interdisciplinary coursework in engineering, mathematics, geoscience, chemistry, physics, and biology applied to a variety of environmental challenges. Students examine the effects of pollution on humans and ecosystems, form strategies to improve processes to prevent or minimize negative effects, and develop sustainable solutions to using available resources. Teamwork, technical writing, and project management are also emphasized throughout the curriculum. The goal of the major is to develop well rounded engineering technologists that can adapt and succeed in a highly competitive workplace.
