This course provides cadets with the opportunity to study the engineering science and design aspects of wastewater treatment (water pollution control) facilities. Building on the processes and scientific principles studied in the prerequisite sequence courses, the cadets gain a more thorough understanding of the physical, chemical, and biological treatment processes employed in modern wastewater treatment facilities. A team developed, comprehensive, multi-step design project serves as the capstone design experience of the environmental engineering sequence. The design projects include both oral and written products.
