  Environmental Engineering Programme 

  The Environmental Engineering programme is structured on a flexible and diverse system that allows students to choose from a broad range of courses to receive a well-rounded education while maintaining high academic standards. Students take the common engineering courses which deals with basic concepts in mathematics, science and fundamental engineering principles, followed by a balanced-mix of core courses in environmental engineering discipline. Courses offered include fluid mechanics, hydrology, environmental chemistry, environmental processes, and environmental microbiology, water supply engineering, wastewater engineering, solid waste engineering, geo-environmental engineering, hydraulics and basic structural design. 

  
  

  During the course of study, students also have the chance to register for Industrial Orientation (IO) in a private company or public organization, where they learn to practise environmental engineering under the guidance of experienced engineers and managers. In the final year, the programme concentrates on training students in professional environmental engineering practice as well as managerial and entrepreneurial skills and students are also required to complete a two-semester duration research project in any of the specializations in environmental engineering.

  Prospect: What do Civil/Environmental Engineers do? 

  
  

  Upon graduation, you are able to be involved in various engineering fields and environments. As a civil / environmental engineer, you build the world’s infrastructure. You erect structures, both modest and magnifi cent, bring fresh water to the masses, dispose or recycle the wastes they generate, and move people and goods safely and efficiently from one location to another. In the new millennium, civil / environmental engineers will be challenged to find the best solutions to the most pressing problems of society and there will be many opportunities to apply sophisticated technologies to meet society’s needs in an environmentally sustainable manner.

  You can look forward to a wide range of career prospects in fields such as infrastructure planning and development, construction technology, seismic and protective engineering, structural project procurement and management, water resources engineering, environmental technologies development, water and wastewater treatment, wastewater reclamation and reuse, membrane technologies, and desalination and resource recovery.
