Minor Environmental Engineering Minor

An undergraduate minor in environmental engineering may be obtained by successful completion of 12 or more semester credit hours in approved environmental engineering course work at the 300 or 400 level. In addition, a student seeking a minor in environmental engineering must satisfy all pre- or corequisite requirements for the courses selected. For civil engineering majors pursuing the environmental engineering minor, one of two 4XX technical elective courses in environmental engineering may count toward one of the approved 400-level courses for the environmental engineering minor.

For completion of a minor a student must have a minimum overall cumulative grade point average of 2.00 in courses specified as a requirement for the minor exclusive of lower-level courses, prerequisites and corequisites and complete a minimum of six hours of upper-level courses in the minor requirement through courses offered by Old Dominion University. Completion of a minor in environmental engineering with a grade point average of 3.00 or greater partially satisfies the leveling requirements for graduate degrees in environmental engineering.
