Environmental Engineering (M.S.)

Old Dominion University

Environmental Engineering master's degree applicants must have a bachelors degree, preferably, in civil or environmental engineering with a strong background in mathematics and physical sciences. Each applicant must submit an essay of 500 words or less describing personal and academic goals, professional objectives, preparation for graduate study, and how the chosen program will help the applicant achieve these goals and objectives. Two letters of recommendation must be submitted from former or current professors, or employment supervisors. Provisional admission may also be possible for applicants with a bachelors degree in a field other than the applicants intended graduate program. In such cases there will be pre-requisite course requirements. Provisional admission may be given to those applicants who do not hold a bachelors degree in civil or environmental engineering; however, these students will be required to complete undergraduate coursework in addition to the graduate program requirements.
