EEE offers a master of science in Earth resources engineering (M.S.-E.R.E.) degree, designed for engineers and scientists who plan to pursue, or are already engaged in, environmental management/development careers. The focus of the program is the environmentally sound mining and processing of primary materials (minerals, energy, and water) and the recycling or proper disposal of used materials. The program also includes technologies for assessment and remediation of past damage to the environment. Students can choose a pace that allows them to to complete the MS.-E.R.E. requirements while being employed.
M.S.-E.R.E. graduates are specially qualified to work for engineering, financial, and operating companies engaged in mineral processing ventures, the environmental industry, environmental groups of in all industries, and for city, state, and federal agencies responsible for the environment and energy/resource conservation. At the present time, the U.S. environmental industry comprises nearly 30,000 big and small businesses with total revenues over $150 billion. Sustainable development and environmental quality has become a top priority of industry and government in the U.S. and many other nations.
The M.S.-E.R.E. requires a minimum of 30 credits (10 courses) beyond a bachelor's degree, preferably in a science or engineering discipline. Up to 48 credits may be required to allow for make-up undergraduate courses. Also required is original research culminating in a M.S. thesis, worth up to 6 credits of the 30 credit total. Students typically enroll in two semesters of graduate-level interdisciplinary coursework in the fall and spring terms and complete the M.S. thesis in the summer term.
