Hi Candidate,

Environmental engineers use the principles of engineering,soil science, biology,chemistry to develop solutions to environmental problems. The students are trained to improve recycling,wastes disposal,public health and water and air pollution control. Here are the duties of environmental engineers:

• Prepare, review, and update environmental investigation reports
• Design projects that lead to environmental protection, such as water reclamation facilities or air pollution control systems
• Obtain, update, and maintain plans, permits, and standard operating procedures
• Provide technical support for environmental remediation projects and for legal actions . Environmental engineers hold about 53800 jobs. All the best

Hello Chaitanya,

Environmental engineers apply combined methods of science and engineering to improve the environment so that people have access to healthy water, air and land. It has an immense scope as it is a growing stream and more and more people are getting conscious of the environment's health. Environmental engineers specialise in basic sciences, ecology, economics, social sciences and radiological science.  They are expected to design, construct and maintain waste management systems so that urban and rural areas are healthy. You need passion more than brains for pursuing this field. If you care about the environment with a scientific aptitude, then this is the field for you.

All the Best!
