Environmental Engineering

Our faculty are leaders in their industry, publishing research that is contributing new knowledge to the field, and bringing new teaching and learning styles to the classroom and lab every day. UNBC’s Bachelor of Applied Science (B.A.Sc.) in Environmental Engineering features all aspects of environmental engineering with a focus on sustainable development, wastewater management, and remediation and reclamation of resource extraction sites. The environmental and civil engineering degrees have a similar first year, allowing students some latitude to change their selected major. In second year, a number of courses are common in all of the engineering degrees but program requirements start to differentiate between the Civil and Environmental Engineering degrees. In the remaining years, some of the courses are common to both programs while each degree develops the in-depth knowledge to allow students to qualify within their discipline upon graduation. The final year exposes students to practical engineering problems.
