Ph.D. (Environmental Engineering)

Doctor of Philosophy in Environmental Engineering

Ph.D. Environmental Engineering or Doctor of Philosophy in Environmental Engineering is Doctorate Environmental Engineering course. The duration of the program is minimum two years from the date of registration (3 years for external candidates) and maximum 5-6 years. The Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) degree requires students to complete a combination of coursework and original research, under the guidance of a faculty advisor and doctoral committee. It is the application of engineering principles to improve and maintain the environment for the protection of human health, for the protection of nature’s beneficial ecosystems, and for the environment-related enhancement of the quality of human life.
