Water Resources and Environmental Engineering
Water Resources and Environmental Engineers help solve complex water challenges (water quantity and quality), including providing society with safe and reliable water supplies, managing impacts of floods and drought, enhancing environmental quality, and remediating contaminations (hazardous wastes). We plan, develop, and implement surface water and groundwater systems that are sustainable and adaptable to changing climate and human activity.
