Objective

The Bachelor of Technology in Environmental Engineeringprogram has already successfully produced more than 200graduates who are recognized and registered as Environ-mental Engineers by Nepal Engineering Council.

The sustainable development of any country needs to recog-nize the intimate and intricate relationship between the hu-man activities and the environment. With the rise in hap-hazard development processes, we risk irrecoverable dam-age to our environment through urgent and pervasive prob-lems like pollution and impact of the built environment onour ecosystem.

Hence, this program aims to equip the students with a soundknowledge-base of technical and engineering principles toassess and eliminate the environmental pollution in the en-vironmental media, viz., air, water and soil. This task in-volves the techniques to increase the quality of life and sus-tainably protect the environment through integration of di-verse domains of science and engineering, with focus onmass and energy principles, and the understanding of physi-cal, chemical and biological processes in the natural and en-gineered environments.
