Environment and Water Resources
Our research aims to address the impact of human activities on the environment and design systems to provide safe water, air and land for human habitation.
Ecohydrology and Hydraulic Engineering
Managing natural water systems and built water infrastructures, and understanding how large-scale climate and weather events impact water resource availability
Environmental Microbiology and Biotechnology
Understanding the fate of chemicals in natural water environments and in manmade systems, and developing processes for removing pollutants from water, wastewater and landfills
Environmental Chemistry and Soil Physics
Designing and implementing pollution prevention strategies, treating and controlling hazardous substances, and designing industrial processes and products that do not harm the environment
Energy and Clean Tech
Developing innovations in energy storage, air and water treatment technologies, and sustainable industrial practices for a greener economy, powered by energy systems with a smaller carbon footprint and a reduced environmental impact
