Graduate Certificate in Waste ManagementIn keeping with the demand for trained professionals in the field of waste management, a new Graduate Certificate Program in Waste Management was launched in 2003. The program is designed for professionals working in the waste management industry who desire advanced knowledge in the field but do not have the time to enroll in a graduate degree program that may take up to two years to complete. The graduate certificate program is designed to meet this need and also to enable students holding a bachelor's degree in an appropriate discipline to improve their knowledge in the waste management field and to prepare them to enter the waste management industry with advanced knowledge at the graduate level. The carefully designed curriculum for this program consists of 15 credit hours of course work that covers every important aspect of waste management. Field visits to waste disposal facilities and a 5-day OSHA-approved Hazardous Waste Operator Training (HAZWOPER) course are included in the curriculum.Required Courses ENVS 310 Field Experience in Waste Management GEOL 335 Introduction to Waste Management GEOL 5512 Geology and Hazardous Waste Management GEOL 5534 Hazardous Waste Operation Management GEOL 5570 Hydrogeology GEOL 5597 Graduate Seminar |
