Graduate study is offered leading to the degrees Master of Engineering, Master of Science, Engineer, and Doctor of Philosophy in the field of environ- mental engineering sciences. Areas in which the stu- dent may specialize include air pollution, water sup- ply and water pollution control, environmental re- sources management, environmental biology, water chemistry, radiological health, and systems ecology and energy analysis. Direct admission into the Master of Science pro- gram requires a bachelor's degree in engineering or in a basic science such as chemistry, physics, biology, or mathematics. Persons with a degree in a nontechnical field may also be admitted into this program upon the completion of specified articulation. Direct admission into the Master of Engineering program requires a bachelor's degree in engineering. Other persons wishing to enter this program will be required to take articulation work sufficient to bring their backgrounds into substantial agreement with, those with undergraduate engineering training. The specific program of study must be approved by the student's supervisory committee. It normally requires sixteen months to complete the requirements for a master's degree. If articulation work is required, it may take longer, depending upon the extent of the student's deficiency. The following courses in related areas will be ac- ceptable for graduate credit as part of the candidate's major: Water Chemistry: CHM 5235, 5514, 6154, 6154L, 6155, 6155L, 6157, 6158C, 6430, 6440, 6449, 6710, 6720, ECI 5625, 6616, 6633, GLY 5241, 5820, 6829, FOS 6355C, SOS 6414, 6424, 6444, 6622.
