What does Environmental Engineering entail exactly?!

 

[lisab]

From wiki -

Environmental engineering is the application of science and engineering principles to improve the environment (air, water, and/or land resources), to provide healthy water, air, and land for human habitation and for other organisms, and to remediate polluted sites.

Often environmental engineering is in the same department as civil engineering.

A lot of job opportunities! Check out:

I was looking to see what sort of PhD research opportunities were being offered, with scholarship, these days, and there's an awful lot of environmental engineering opportunities being offered... David Cameron is very green and very pro-cuts, guess that equates to 'you better do environmental engineering' if you want to do anything...
