UNIVERSITY, COLLEGE, AND MAJOR REQUIREMENTS FOR ALL ENVIRONMENTAL ENGINEERING BACHELORS DEGREE CONCENTRATIONS

CURRICULUM CREDITS
Parenthesized figures indicate year and semester in which the course should be taken. (1 = freshman, 2 = sophomore, 3 = junior, 4 = senior) and semester (F = fall, S = spring).

UNIVERSITY REQUIREMENTS
ENGL 110 Critical Reading and Writing (minimum grade C-) 3
First Year Experience (FYE) 0-4
Breadth Requirements 12
Discovery Learning Experience (DLE) 3
Multi-cultural Courses 3

MAJOR REQUIREMENTS
College of Engineering Breadth Requirements 21
The College of Engineering requires 21 total Breadth Requirement credits (essentially 9 credits in addition to the University Breadth Requirement.)
  • If chosen carefully, up to 3 credits from each of the University Breadth Requirement categories may be used to simultaneously satisfy the College  of Engineering Breadth Requirements for this major.
  • Of the 21 credits, 6 credits must be at the Upper Level (usually 300-level or higher) as designated on the College of Engineering Breadth Requirement list.
  • Of the 21 credits, 3 credits may be used to satisfy the University Multicultural Requirement (recommended for timely progress toward degree completion).
  • All Breadth Requirement coursework must be passed with a minimum grade of C-.
Core Courses
ENGL 410 Technical Writing 3 (2F)
MATH 241 Analytic Geometry and Calculus A 4 (1F)
MATH 242 Analytic Geometry and Calculus B 4 (1S)
MATH 243 Analytic Geometry and Calculus C 4 (2F)

CIEG 315 Probability and Statistics for Engineers 3 (3S)
CIEG 337 Environmental Engineering Laboratory 3 (3/4F)
CIEG 434 Air Pollution Control 3 (4S)
CIEG 437 Water & Wastewater Quality 3 (3/4F)
CIEG 438 Water and Wastewater Engineering 3 (3/4F)
CIEG 440 Water Resources Engineering 3 (3/4F)
CIEG 461 Senior Design Project 4 (4F,S)

Beyond these core courses, one of the three concentrations listed below must also be chosen (see curricula at bottom of page.):
  • Environmental Biological and Chemical Processes
  • Environmental Facilities Design and Construction
  • Water Resources and Water Quality
The concentration determines which chemistry sequence is needed and which technical electives should be taken as a core group. For the freshman chemistry courses, if a student's chemistry background is sufficiently strong, they are advised to take CHEM 111/CHEM 112 but CHEM 103/CHEM 104 is acceptable for most concentrations.

Each concentration also requires additional technical elective courses to provide the desired focus at the intermediate and advanced levels. Beyond the set of specific core technical electives for the concentration, the remaining technical electives can then be chosen to further pursue this direction of study, or to provide a more diversified environmental engineering education. All technical electives must be upper level courses in engineering, the sciences, computer science, or mathematics.

The chemistry courses and the core technical electives are listed below for each concentration.
