Areas of Specialization

Environmental Chemistry and Technology students can specialize in research and study in one of four areas:

• Aquatic Chemistry stresses chemical processes in lakes, rivers and watersheds including organic chemicals, trace metals, and nutrient elements
• Environmental Technology stresses the application of chemistry and biotechnology to development of technologies for water and air treatment, sensors, and energy storage devices
• Air Pollution Chemistry stresses sources, characterization, reactions, and fate of air pollutants as well as air-water interactions
• Terrestrial Chemistry stresses chemical and biogeochemical processes in soils and sediments and their influences on land-water and air water interactions
