The Bachelor of Science & Honors Bachelor of Science degree programs in Environmental Engineering are accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET, http://www.abet.org.

The undergraduate curriculum is founded on a sound background in basic sciences (chemistry, physics, biology) and mathematics (calculus, differential equations), and strengthened with engineering science fundamentals (engineering mechanics, fluid mechanics, heat and mass transfer). Upper division coursework in environmental engineering includes analysis and design of water and wastewater treatment systems, hazardous substance management and regulations, air pollution control technologies, and fate and transport of chemicals in the environment. All students participate in a capstone-design experience meant to foster interaction and communication between different engineering disciplines while applying environmental engineering principles to a real-world problem.

Welcome to CBEE Careers & Internships
Navigating the career development and job sectors as a student can be overwhelming and difficult. The School of Chemical, Biological, and Environmental Engineering (CBEE) offers resources through our undergraduate advisors, industry relations coordinator, and the OSU Career Development Center to assist you in learning about this process. We highly recommend looking into undergraduate research and internships in industry as a way to improve your engineering skills for your future career!

UNDERGRADUATE RESEARCH
Doing undergraduate research is a great way to start building your resume early in your time at OSU. Having research experience can also help you be more qualified for highly-competitive industry internships, and it is also great preparation for students interested in graduate school.

INDUSTRY TOURS & JOBS SHADOWS
Not sure about your career after graduation? Consider going on one of CBEE’s industry tours or participating in a job shadow! These programs are a great way to learn about the different kinds of industries related to your major and what kinds of jobs exist in those industries.

INDUSTRY INTERNSHIPS
Doing an internship in industry is one of the best ways to prepare yourself for getting a job after graduation. Internships are an essential way to develop skills that will make you a desirable candidate for jobs after graduation. The practical experience gained through internships will make you a better and more marketable engineer.
