Undergraduate Courses
  • CEGR 3141    Introduction to Environmental Engineering
    • Junior level required undergraduate course.  The topics cover introduction to environmental regulations, drinking water and wastewater treatment, air pollution control, stream ecology, and solid, radioactive and hazardous waste management.
    • Syllabus
  • CEGR 4242    Wastewater Treatment Design
    • Upper level undergraduate/graduate elective and a required course for environmental engineering concentration. It is a design-focused class discussing physical, chemical and biological treatment of wastewater.  The student groups work on a real-world design problem with the help of professional engineers who provide team mentoring and report/presentation/design feedback.  The students are also introduced to Biowin process modeling software, which makes them better outfitted for modern wastewater design jobs.
