Branch of engineering which addresses the impact of human activity on the environment and the design of sustainable engineering solutions to provide people with safe water, air and land, for the benefit of humankind.
We use engineering principles combined with the natural sciences to solve environmental problems, helping society meet the challenges of limited global resources and human environmental impacts. Whether it’s reducing the effects of pollution on our resources, treating and recycling wastewater to keep our lakes and oceans healthy, improving sustainability, or curbing air emissions to reduce climate change, we aim to make our planet greener.
