Master of Science in Environmental Engineering
45.0 credits

Degree Requirements

The MS in Environmental Engineering requires 45.0 credits. Both thesis and a non-thesis options are available. It is possible to finish the MS degree on either a part-time or a full-time basis.

The degree consists of five core courses (in topics of chemistry, statistics, analysis of physical systems, and policy), completion of sequences in two areas (e.g. treatment processes, risks, water resources, or environmental modeling), additional elective courses and/or the MS thesis. Full time students can complete the degree in 15-18 months.
