非论文专业是针对那些不会继续攻读哲学博士学位的人。以下要求可以在1.5年内完成。土木和环境工程师正在推动应用科学的发展，以为世界打造更可持续的未来。高级知识和学位对于需要想象力，创新，复杂的设计解决方案和管理知识的专业职业至关重要。随着工程师的职业发展，他们将面临挑战，以想象新的方式来满足企业，行业，公共机构及其公司的需求。拥有理学硕士（MS）和哲学博士（Ph.D.）学位或作为非预科专业的研究生可以提高您的知识深度，并为您提供最新技术进展的机会。
Environmental Engineers work to improve public health and quality of life, while protecting and restoring environmental systems. These engineers focus on drinking water treatment, wastewater reclamation, air pollution control, solid waste management and environmental remediation. Water resources engineers plan and design infrastructure systems to provide clean drinking water, collect and treat wastewater, supply water for agriculture, protect from floods, prevent adverse water quality impacts, increase efficiency, address greenhouse gas emissions, and mitigate drought impacts. Today's exciting opportunities for civil engineers include applications of smart technologies, distributed sensor systems, artificial intelligence, natural systems, biotechnology, robots, social sensing, and more to make water systems of all kinds more sustainable and resilient.
