Environmental engineers apply engineering, soil science, biology, and chemistry principles to address environmental challenges. They focus on enhancing drinking water systems, public health, recycling efforts, sustainability, and managing pollution in air and water, along with waste control. Pursuing an environmental engineering degree equips you to utilize these scientific and engineering foundations to tackle issues like contamination and dangerous waste materials. Although UWM's environmental engineering program is relatively new, it maintains strong professional networks, particularly in water-related fields. Situated near the scenic Lake Michigan, UWM spearheads international water initiatives and partnerships, providing Bachelor of Science in Engineering students with cutting-edge resources and faculty engaged in significant research.
