BSCE - Environmental Specialization

Seattle is one of the fastest growing metropolitan areas in the United States and one of the cities most committed to environmental stewardship. This balance creates an ideal environment to study and practice civil engineering with an environmental emphasis.

By pursuing the Environmental Specialization within the BS in Civil Engineering program, you can contribute to reclaiming habitats for endangered species, cleaning contaminated water for return to the environment, managing critical water resources, addressing challenges of air pollution, and remediating polluted sites in our built environments. This balanced, ABET-accredited civil engineering degree will equip you to apply engineering fundamentals towards achieving environmental justice and sustainability.

Students who choose this specialization will take a specialized elective sequence during their program. As with all other majors in the department, students will complete a Senior Project in conjunction with an industry sponsor.

Please contact the department for more information.
