Northwestern’s Environmental Engineering BS equips students with the chemistry, microbiology, and systems modeling skills to safeguard ecosystems and public health. Field sampling on Lake Michigan pairs with lab work in membrane desalination, bio-electrochemical reactors, and atmospheric-aerosol chambers. Policy electives and community partnerships ensure graduates can translate technical solutions into equitable environmental action.
