Environmental engineering has a profound impact on the world’s environmental problems. Environmental engineers identify environmental problems and develop effective ethical and social responsible solutions to combat them.

 

As a graduate in in this field of Engineering, you may manage projects that look to limit environmental damage from engineering works. You’ll look at restoring natural ecosystems, improve water supply, combat negative effects of climate change or be involved in the research and development of government environmental policy.

82% of Environmental engineers work full-time, which is much higher than the average full-time work of 66%.
