Environmental Engineering (BS)
Montana State University
Description
The Environmental Engineering undergraduate program at MSU was started in 2019. The Bachelor of Science degree in Environmental Engineering is intended to address the demand for classically trained engineers with focus on environmental, municipal and industrial processes and strengths in water chemistry, fluid mechanics and hydraulics. In this program, students learn to work with the environment, not against it, preserving and protecting resources while providing for the structural needs of society. Students plan, design and help construct the built environment with a focus on the sustainable use of soil and water resources and protecting the natural environment. The department recently received a grant that will allow the program to be revamped to include sustainability as a pillar with more explicit focus on the concepts and practices of a sustainable degree.
