September 2004 marks the beginning of a new, one-of-a-kind masters program at Lakehead University in Thunder Bay.
Lakehead will be launching a new masters program in environmental engineering that will surpass any other graduate programs of its kind currently available in Canada.
According to Dr. Lionel Catalan, professor in the faculty of engineering and Lakehead’s Canada Research Chair in Industrial Waste Management and Site Remediation, the program will be the first to offer extensive collaboration between departments in science and engineering.
The program will integrate three engineering areas, chemical, civil and mechanical with geology, biology, forestry and chemistry.
“Graduates of our program will have a wide breadth of knowledge and will be highly qualified to work in all areas of environmental engineering,” Catalan says.
