Environmental Resources Engineering - SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry

Environmental Resources Engineering from SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry is a Campus Bachelor Enviroment degree that prepares you for a Science career. The undergraduate B.S. in Environmental Resources Engineering has graduated its first students and is preparing for its first accreditation visit by the Engineering Accreditation Commission/Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (EAC/ABET). Below we explain how this program is similar to yet distinct from many Civil and Environmental Engineering programs. The primary objective of this degree program is to prepare qualified engineering graduates to operate with professional competence. This program offers a engineering science and design coursework in the areas of water resources engineering , ecological engineering, and geospatial engineering , a breadth and combination unparalleled in the United States. A broad base of study in the fundamentals of engineering enables graduates to enter professional practices which focus on civil works as well as the use and protection of soil, water, air, and other renewable and non-renewable resources. The Environmental Resources Engineering program is similar to many Civil and Environmental Engineering programs, with 2 years of core science and engineering courses followed by upper level requirements in Water and Wastewater Treatment, Geotechnical Engineering, Hydrology and Hydraulics, and Solid Waste Management.We offer advanced courses in Water Resources Engineering , a focus common to many Civil and Environmental Engineering programs. We differentiate our program from many Civil and Environmental Engineering programs by also offering introductory and advanced courses in the Ecological Engineering and Geospatial Engineering areas, two themes which complement our Water Resources Engineering area. The curriculum is developed to include hands-on, design-oriented courses starting in the freshman year, and allows students to explore advanced topics of interest through senior engineering design electives. While most of ourstudents use these engineering design electives to focus on the Ecological Engineering , GeoSpatial Engineering, and Water Resources Engineering strengths of the Department of Environmental Resources Engineering, some students choose a to take upper level courses in Structural and Geotechnical Engineering . Engineering students with an interest in graduate study can plan their undergraduate studies along an individualized track which will prepare them for entry into graduate study either at SUNY ESF or at other top universities throughout the country. Our past graduates have successfully pursued MS and/or PhD degrees at MIT, Princeton, Brown, Cornell, Illinois, and Berkeley, among other schools, and our unique undergraduate curriculum provided them with skills to succeed in these programs.
