Gain the skills and knowledge to enter the diverse and rewarding field of environmental engineering. This program offers the chance to specialize in civil, groundwater or chemical engineering. Land contamination, hydrogeology, wastewater treatment, and sustainable cities and infrastructure are strong focus areas. As an environmental engineering student, you’ll learn engineering concepts and technical skills in order to: preserve the environment minimize water, soil and air pollution assess the environmental impact of engineering projects develop remediation measures for environmental degradation deliver sustainable solutions through engineering processes Elective subjects such as the China Environmental Challenges Study Tour or the Sustainable Cities for the Future France Study Tour will provide you with the opportunity to gain a global perspective of the environment. You’ll graduate with the skills and knowledge to be able to: improve water quality and conserve water resources develop cleaner process and production technologies for a range of industries undertake rehabilitation of contaminated land and groundwater design systems to manage waste prepare environmental impact studies You’ll also have the opportunity to design creative solutions through inspiring and sustainable design and build projects, as well as taking part in the Engineers without Borders Challenge - a humanitarian-focused course offered in all RMIT engineering degrees. Multiple campuses Some laboratory classes will take place on the Bundoora campus. International student visa holders can only study full-time. Career Environmental engineering offers you diverse career options. You’ll have a real opportunity to make a significant difference to the world by introducing sustainable practices to preserve the environment, remediating environmental disasters, and preparing the community for adverse effects of climate change. You'll find employment opportunities in: environmental consultancies government departments and regulatory bodies private businesses contaminated land industries mining water treatment environmental remediation Graduates have gone on to work at a range of organizations including EPA Victoria and the Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning. Further study When you successfully complete this program, you may be eligible for entry into an RMIT postgraduate program or RMIT Masters by Research or Doctoral (PhD) program.
