Transferring from Science to Environmental Engineering
In some instances, individuals
without a B. S. in engineering may be admitted to the Environmental Engineering
Program after one semester in Environmental Quality Science and the approval
of the student's graduate committee. Such a course of studies will require
completion of the following set of deficiency courses in addition to the regular
Environmental Engineering Program. This set of courses has been approved by
the faculty of the Civil Engineering Department. The list of deficiency courses
and their UAF course equivalents are shown in the table below.
