About Environmental Engineering Technology

Location Is Everything

When it comes to launching a career in sustainability, our region is a natural!

Our natural resources are a national treasure (and resource) that you can help protect. Because of the amount of lakes, rivers, forests and other natural areas throughout Northeast Wisconsin, environmental engineering technology is crucial to maintain a habitable and enjoyable land. In addition to natural resources, we also have plenty of industrial and agricultural businesses that are looking for your expertise.
