UNBC’s Bachelor of Applied Science (BASc) in Environmental Engineering features all aspects of environmental engineering with a focus on sustainable development, drinking water delivery to northern communities, wastewater management, and remediation and reclamation of resource extraction sites.
Environmental and ecological problems are an increasing concern for all Canadians particularly in the resource-rich northern portion of British Columbia. The concerns are especially acute due to a primarily resource-based economy, which depends on forestry, mining, oil and gas, and fisheries. Further, the northern economy generates a significant portion of British Columbia’s primary wealth and feeds provincial economic growth. UNBC offers an Environmental Engineering degree that integrates basic science with modern engineering practices. Our graduates are prepared to take on challenges facing modern society, including the protection of society from adverse environmental factors, protection of environments from potentially detrimental effects of natural and human activities, water, air, and soil pollution control, solid waste management and contaminated site remediation. Modern issues require highly skilled engineers with a solid background in environmental engineering, strong communication skills, and the ability to work across disciplinary boundaries. This program prepares graduates for a wide range of employment opportunities where the technical expertise and problem-solving skills of engineers are needed in conjunction with a strong awareness and understanding of environmental issues and problems.
