Career Path Forecast
 According to the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics,
environmental engineers are expected to have employment growth of 31
percent from 2008 to 2018, much faster than the average for all
occupations.
More environmental engineers will be needed to help companies comply
with environmental regulations and to develop methods of cleaning up
environmental hazards.
 A
shift in emphasis toward preventing problems rather than controlling
those which already exist, as well as increasing public health concerns
resulting from population growth, also are expected to spur demand for
environmental engineers. Because of this employment growth, job
opportunities should be favorable.
