[[Environment|Environmental]] [[engineer]]s conduct hazardous-waste management studies to evaluate the significance of the such hazards, advise on treatment and containment, and develop regulations to prevent mishaps. Environmental engineers also design municipal water supply and industrial wastewater treatment systems as well as being concerned with local and worldwide environmental issues such as the effects of acid rain, ozone depletion, water pollution and air pollution from automobile exhausts and industrial sources.

To become an environmental engineer, at least a Bachelor's degree in engineering (usually civil or chemical, and more frequently environmental engineering) is required, usually followed by specialized training at the Master's or Doctoral level. Most jurisdictions also impose licensing and registration requirements.
