Drexel University School of Engineering 99 courses
This program allows students to develop technical depth and breadth in their major and an additional complementary related area, which enhances their professional capabilities in industry, or as they proceed on to earn a PhD. A natural progression from the student's undergraduate courses, with the necessary technical prerequisite understanding and skills, prepares students for graduate-level studies. The underlying technical concepts of engineering are common, so students readily achieve their master's degree in a related discipline in their area of interest. The American Society of Civil Engineers publishes the Journal of Environmental Engineering, so these are recognized as connected disciplines.
