Introduction

The Department of Environmental Engineering   is a dynamic and integral part of the Faculty of Applied Natural Sciences. Intensive collaboration between Jordanian and German Professors is underway to` build one of the largest and most successful programme of its type in Jordan.

The program provides students with professional qualifications, basic skills and hands on experience in areas of great importance to the community in the sense of insuring continued protected environmental systems, conserved natural resources and well managed industrial–related activities. The program is attractive to students who have in mind a career involving environmental and related infrastructure development. The School of Natural Applied Sciences administers the program.

Graduates from the Department of Environmental Engineering   are to be highly employable and command some of the best starting salaries. Leading organizations from Jordan and the Gulf region are to regularly recruit from GJU and many offer more graduate employment opportunities to our students and graduates than to those of other universities.

Teaching

We are to play a leading role in the delivery of undergraduate and postgraduate degree programs in Environmental Engineering  ; and attracts local and regional students and also to have a significant contingent of abroad students mainly from the Gulf Region. Our programs aim to develop well-educated graduates with the practical skills, attributes and knowledge that will enable them to practice as professional environmental engineers.

Objectives& Outcomes

The broad objective of the program's undergraduate programs is to develop well-educated graduates with the basic skills, attributes and knowledge required to practice as professional Environmental Managers. The desired skills are those that enable graduates to be problem solvers; critical thinkers; life long learners; good communicators; team players; independent investigators; effective managers; self-motivated; and economically, environmentally and socially aware. 

It is intended that these attributes are developed in students at the same time that they gain knowledge in a broad range of disciplines. In addition, an objective of the programs is to provide the skills and knowledge in a social context for direct impact on the community with sever environmental  deterioration. Integrating courses in each year of each program (the Engineering Practice courses) have been introduced to achieve this objective.

Research

Research activity is carried out by the program’s staff and by future postgraduate students working towards their research degrees. Furthermore, undergraduate students will also play a significant role in research undertaking their final year thesis. The range of research projects undertaken within the departments covers all the sub-disciplines of Environmental Engineering  and includes both fundamental and applied research.
