— Christine Hengel-Prom, Civil & Environmental Engineering: Environmental Engineering MEngA huge reason [for choosing this program] was because it’s an MEng degree and not an MS. [This program] focuses so much on the practical aspect of environmental engineering and how you apply it to the real world. I’m able to apply it right now to my job, which is huge because I’m a practicing consulting engineer and that’s what I care about.
