Saint Francis University offers a four-year Bachelor of Science degree in Environmental Engineering with a curriculum emphasizing a solid foundation in engineering principles coupled with real-world design experience and integrated communication skills.

Environmental engineering, a rapidly growing field, uses the principles of biology, chemistry, physics, and mathematics to manage ecosystems, reclaim polluted lands, and protect our soil, air, and water resources.


3-2 Dual Degree Engineering Program

Saint Francis University has cooperative engineering programs with Clarkson University of New York, The Pennsylvania State University, and the University of Pittsburgh. The programs are designed to prepare a student with a liberal arts background for a professional career in a branch of engineering.

After successfully completing three years in the pre-engineering program at Saint Francis University, the qualified student transfers to any of the three schools mentioned or to any school offering ABET (Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology)-accredited B.S. program in engineering to complete the final two years of the program. After successful completion of one full year in an engineering program at another school, the student will receive the degree of Bachelor of Arts in Engineering from Saint Francis University.

The general degree requirements for the Bachelor of Arts as specified by Saint Francis University must be satisfied. The degree of Bachelor of Science in the appropriate branch of engineering is conferred by the engineering school upon the fulfillment of all the requirements of the program at the end of the normal five-year period. The branches of engineering available for study are aerospace, agricultural, ceramic, chemical, civil, computer, electrical, engineering science, environmental, industrial, mechanical, metallurgical, mining, petroleum and natural gas, and nuclear.
