环境工程

环境工程 is one of the four undergraduate degree programs in the Department of Civil, Construction and 环境工程. 该部门的愿景是通过创造全球相关知识来影响人们和社区, 创新者, 以及未来的机会创造者. We dare to change the world: we educate students to become global leaders in our fields; we solve existing and emerging challenges of the world through innovation and research excellence; we integrate the complexities of 设计, 管理, and practice to solve societal problems and create opportunities; and we serve all people and communities in North Dakota and beyond.

你想通过关注人与环境之间的相互作用，让这个世界变得更美好吗? You could make a difference by choosing a career in 环境工程. We 设计 sustainable solutions to societal challenges today and into the future.

这个项目

在一般情况下, 环境 engineers integrate and apply biological, 化学, 以及改善和维持环境以保护生态系统的工程原则, 人类健康, and 环境ly-related enhancement of the quality of life. The discipline focuses on 水 and waste水 treatment system 设计 and public health protection; traditional and emerging contaminant mitigation in 水, 土壤, and air; ecological principles in the 设计 process; green manufacturing; and sustainable 设计. Environmental engineers will play a crucial role in numerous 21^st 世纪挑战, including: sustainably supplying food, 水, and energy; 设计ing a future without pollution and waste; creating efficient, 健康的, and resilient cities; fostering informed decisions and actions; and, curbing climate change and adapting to its impacts.[1]环境工程师是具有广泛科学技术知识的专业人员, possess strong problem-solving and 设计 skills, 享受和人一起工作. Our work is directly related to the public and 环境 health and well-being, and we have a significant impact on decision making and planning processes. NDSU乙.S. in 环境工程 degree program began accepting students in fall 2020. Its graduates will be sought by companies nationally at competitive salaries, 他们将在国内和国外的所有专业领域乐虎集团他们的技能. The graduates will most certainly put their education to good use, bettering themselves and the world in which they live.
