Accreditation

The Bachelor of Environmental Engineering is accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission (EAC) of ABET, https://www.abet.org, under the General Criteria and the Environmental Engineering Program Criteria.

Program Educational Objectives

The Environmental Engineering program will produce graduates that, within a few years of graduation, will

• address the evolving needs of a global society by applying knowledge of engineering and sustainability principles;
• advance their careers through lifelong learning, graduate studies, and/or professional licensure;
• demonstrate effective communication skills, social responsibility, ethical decision-making, and a commitment to their profession.

Student Outcomes

The student outcomes for the environmental engineering degree program are as follows:

• an ability to identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, and mathematics (Outcome 1)
• an ability to apply engineering design to produce solutions that meet specified needs with consideration of public health, safety, and welfare, as well as global, cultural, social, environmental, and economic factors (Outcome 2)
• an ability to communicate effectively with a range of audiences (written & oral) (Outcome 3)
• an ability to recognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations and make informed judgments, which must consider the impact of engineering solutions in global, economic, environmental, and societal contexts (Outcome 4)
• an ability to function effectively on a team whose members together provide leadership, create a collaborative and inclusive environment, establish goals, plan tasks, and meet objectives (Outcome 5)
• an ability to develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data, and use engineering judgment to draw conclusions (Outcome 6)
• an ability to acquire and apply new knowledge as needed, using appropriate learning strategies (Outcome 7)
