    Hey, I'm an environmental engineer and this video is pretty much spot on.
    We do a broad sense of everything environmental-related and can specialize in specific fields (air, water, waste, etc...). My job specifically is geared towards environmental compliance, which is to ensure that facilities follow local and federal regulations such as not dumping whatever toxic waste down a river. Some other environmental engineers do designs for water treatment plants if you enjoy working with structures more and love AutoCAD. Overall, there are many different routes to choose from, and we're all doing this to build a better and more sustainable future

    According to my knowledge, there is no specific degree program called environmental engineering but it is one pathway of civil engineering. You just have to select your final research related to the environmental issues or enhancements that you are interested. I guess doing post grads and become environmental is another way of specialization in this field. Anyways this is gonna be the most important engineering field very soon.🤗

      It all depends what part of Env.Eng. you focus on. You can specialize in one or all multimedia (air, waste or water) or you could focus on modeling or permitting. I am not sure where you are from but if you do live in the USA and want to have an active role in rule interpretation and enforcement, I do recommend a job in one of the state agencies or even the EPA

      If your goal is ultimately go in an engineering field, then I will suggest Math. It will give you a small edge once you enter college as unless you go through AP courses, you will be required to take most basic math (algebra, trig, calculus) courses.

    • @jjga1984
      @jjga1984 5 лет назад +3

      Truly it depends on multiple factors. I can give you my opinion as an Env.Eng. in USA. If you choose to work in industry you will be initially assigned to one of the medias (air, water or waste). Once you get sufficient experience in each area, you may choose to stay in that field or rotate. There is also the possibility that you will be introduced to another area of Env.Eng. that is not very discussed on - permitting. You need to have permits to build or expand facilities, among a plethora of other things.
      You can also decided to work for a consulting firm - they typically focus more on projects and reports that some industry decided to contract out (not too advisable if you dont like math).
      There is also the option of working for a state or federal agency; they typically oversee that industry are following the required regulations by performing audits, reviewing permits and responding to industry or public concerns.

      If not on a permanent basis then definitely as consultants. Slaughterhouses generate a lot of effluent that is emitted into the air or water, or onto land. I am sure Environmental Engineers along with Environmental Scientists are employed to implement abatement measures in both pre-generation and end-of-pipe scenarios.

      @kdoudrick 8 лет назад +10

      Justin, neither is better or worse, it all depends on your interests. Do some research on the two disciplines, and look at some job descriptions for each. Which one excites you more? Did the video discussing what EEs do excite you?
      And contrary to what Jill says, Environmental Engineering is no longer considered a specialization of Civil Engineering. This was true a two decades ago, but no more. If fact, the NCEES recognizes each as its own profession (ie you take either a Civil or Environmental Professional Engineering Exam). Although, the two are very related, and often you'll find universities created another major for EE within their department, rather than a new department.
