Environmental engineers possess a strong commitment to the environment and they enjoy a career that allows them to improve it. The most successful environmental engineers have background in mathematics and science and are detail-oriented. Environmental engineers make significant contributions in the areas of civil, structural and waste resource engineering. Upon graduation environmental engineers will know how to communicate with engineering knowledge in a variety of problem areas in the engineering industry.
Professional in this fled work on issue like wastewater treatment, toxic materials control and air quality control. Duties vary by project and can include collecting and analysing data, performing quality control checks, evaluating and devising solution for environmental hazards. Environmental engineers will be communicating with municipalities, urban and rural communities and even be involved with water resource management in agriculture. They even will be an industry leader in implementing engineering and environmental policies and procedures.
