About Bachelor of Science - Environmental Engineering
Environmental Engineering students at UVM begin their education by acquiring a common base of knowledge in mathematics, sciences, and engineering, and then progressively learn to analyze and design sustainable environmental engineering systems.
The degree culminates in a two-semester capstone design experience in the senior year, which is typically a service-learning project in collaboration with a community partner. This degree intentionally requires a relatively small number of required courses allowing students to pursue technical electives to their liking in the senior year in environmental and water resources engineering, geoenvironmental engineering, and energy.
Accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission (EAC) of ABET, Environmental Engineering degree as a whole has UVM’s Sustainability Designation. Students can take courses in arts, languages, community development, business and other areas as part of the general education component. The degree program includes ten courses with hands-on laboratories and most technical electives are project-based. The curriculum allows opportunities for picking up a minor, co-op and/or study abroad experiences, or an accelerated Master’s degree.
