Civil and Environmental Engineering

https://ceps.unh.edu/civil-environmental-engineering

Civil and Environmental Engineering involves the sustainable planning, design, and construction of public works for the benefit of society while minimizing environmental impact. Civil Engineering concerns the design of buildings, bridges, roads, dams, water transmission systems, water treatment systems, tunnels, and more. Environmental Engineering specializes in environmental cleanup, drinking water systems, wastewater treatment systems, and solid and hazardous waste disposal systems, environmental remediation, all with consideration of people, planet, and profits - known as the triple bottom line. Resulting infrastructure facilities must provide efficient service, be cost effective, and be compatible with the environment. Moreover, civil and environmental engineers work under a code of ethics in which their primary, overriding responsibility, is to uphold the public's trust by working to plan, design, build, and restore safe, sustainable, and environmentally responsible public works.

As civil engineering is such a broad field, it is traditionally divided into sub-disciplines. At the University of New Hampshire, multiple courses are offered in six: transportation, environmental engineering, geotechnical engineering, structural engineering, sustainable engineering, and water resources engineering.

Environmental engineering focuses on environmental pollution and public health protection; water, wastewater, reuse and stormwater technology; solid and hazardous waste engineering and remediation; engineering sustainability; environmental microbiology and chemistry; contaminant transport and fate, hydraulics, and hydrology.

Students may readily transfer between the BSCIVE and BSENVE programs within the first three semesters. Transferring between the two programs is also possible later on in the programs, but additional courses may result.

Both engineering degrees provide a firm base in mathematics and engineering, and all majors are expected to develop excellent communication and computer skills. Graduates are prepared to enter the profession and to pursue advanced study. Because of the broad technical background attained, some graduates also successfully pursue further education in business, architecture, education, and law.

Mission

The mission of the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the University of New Hampshire is fourfold:

To pursue and disseminate knowledge through teaching, scholarship, outreach and public service.
To provide excellent undergraduate and graduate education.
To advance the state-of-the-art in science and engineering by conducting research.
To enhance the quality of life for people in New Hampshire, New England, and beyond.
