Department of Environmental Science & Technology is one of the most diverse engineering disciplines, encompassing environmental and water resources engineering, Air pollution control and solid waste management. Environmental Science & Technology engineers are responsible for planning, design, construction, and operation of structures and facilities that are essential to the environment and infrastructure of a sustainable society. Traditionally these structures include water and waste treatment plants, air pollution control & management systems and Solid waste management systems. Today, environmental engineers are involved in a wide range of engineered and natural systems that contribute to a modern society and protect the environment and public health. The focus area includes management and protection of watersheds and water supplies, mathematical modelling of built and natural environments, bioremediation, exposure assessment and maintaining Environmental Management systems.

The department currently offers Diploma in Environment Engineering, B.E in Environmental Science and Technology (a unique blend of Environment engineering, Chemical engineering and Chemistry), and M.E in Environmental Management.
