This course introduces you to the fundamentals of environmental engineering. You will explore the interactions between the built environment (human made structures and supporting infrastructure) and the natural environment (climate, water resources, land, ecosystems etc.). You will learn about key environmental concerns such as, water, air, waste, and noise. Additionally, you will relate offers of Indigenous knowledge to environmental engineering practice. Environmental engineering is highly relevant to all disciplines as it equips engineers with an understanding of how to use socio-technical thinking in resolving pressing global challenges including the biodiversity crisis, climate change and sustainable development.
