    Environmental Engineering is becoming an increasingly important and popular programme as the world begins to acknowledge the environmental problems caused by past generations and are preparing for future issues.

    Another factor that makes each university's ENE department unique is the tenured professors. In NTU CEE, our professors are well-known in their respective fields, be it membrane technology or greeen building materials, so students are able to receive good mentorship and guidance should they wish to explore different subjects.

    Ever wondered how blessed we are to breathe fresh air and drink clean water? Ever thought of being a champion for these blessings of ours? Well, NTU Environmental Engineering is the answer to all your questions!

    During my time at CEE, I was exposed to a wide range of engineering principles and solutions aimed at tackling environmental issues resulting from our actions.  This discovery spurred my desire to safeguard the environment. Backed by many approachable professors who are willing to share their knowledge and experiences, I can say that you will never be alone on this journey.

    Additionally, we don't just study hard, we play hard too! At NTU, you will be provided with a vast amount of opportunities such as Overseas Exchange Programs to broaden your horizon and appreciate the cultural differences, Freshmen Orientation Programs to build on your leadership and communication skills and internships to learn more about the industry!

    So, what are you waiting for?
