Environmental Technology and Management
It focuses on systems approach to managing the environment, including the interrelated roles of industry and government agencies. Some of the subjects covered in the specialization are air pollution, solid wastes, industrial pollution control, hazardous wastes control and minimization, environmental impact assessment and waste audits. Students are taught the environmental impacts of reckless exploitation and transformation of natural resources in developing countries that have resulted in negative impacts, causing heavy pollution and severe environmental degradation. The curriculum provides an understanding of air, water and land resource deterioration, involving a spectrum of disciplines.
Water and Wastewater Engineering
It responds to the need to produce engineers specialized in the planning, design, operation, and management of water supply, wastewater treatment and disposal systems. It brings into focus the development of advanced treatment systems. Specialization include water supply and sewerage system engineering, water quality management, water and wastewater treatment systems, environmental sanitation systems, groundwater contamination, waste recycling and resource recovery, natural and ecological treatment systems.
