Hi,

Refer to the following points to know about the Environmental Engineering eligibility criteria:

• Typically, a bachelor's degree in Science or engineering, preferably in fields like civil engineering, chemical engineering, or environmental science, is required.
• Some institutions may also consider candidates with relevant work experience.
• The specific criteria may vary depending on the institution and the level of course (e.g., undergraduate, postgraduate).

I hope the above solution for your query helps !

Hi,

The colleges and institutes offer BE/BTech in Environmental Engineering,  which is a four-year programme, and ME/MTech in Environmental Engineering, which is a two-year programme. Apart from that, the college also offers integrated course in Environmental Engineering. Candidates who wish to pursue BTech courses are required to clear JEE Advanced whereas for M.Tech courses are required to clear GATE. The average placement package offered during 2023 was INR 23.26 LPA. Hence, IIT Bombay offers excellent and competitive course in Environmental Engineering.

Main subjects included in the Environmental Engineering syllabus are given below

• Engineering Mathematics
• Engineering Physics
• Environmental Chemistry
• Air Pollution and Control
• Advanced Water Treatment

Hi,

Yes, Environmental Engineering graduates require a basic understanding of Mathematics in order to design and operate models and systems which are environment friendly. Mathematical skills are required to understand the quantity of the pollutants and to measure them over a period of time. It is also required to manage waste treatment plants and pollution control systems. Though the level of Mathematics taught to Environmental Engineering students is not the same as other disciplines, they are given basic knowledge on Numerical Methods and Calculus.

I hope this answer resolved your doubt !

After completing Environmental Engg., professionals are hired across companies for managing their resources and suggesting environmentally-safe methods for waste disposal. Some of the popular fields include
