The Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering offers two separate degree programs: Civil Engineering and Environmental Engineering. Both programs are similar in many respects, but each offers its own unique strengths. UWindsor offered the first environmental engineering degree program in Canada. After your first-year studies, you will specialize in subjects such as air pollution, water pollution control, chemical reaction engineering, environmental microbiology, waste management, and assessing the sustainability and environmental performance of engineering projects and systems. These will serve as a broad base to further develop and apply your environmental expertise to a wide variety of environmental situations that may face industry and the community.
