Our HESE graduate track brings together the hydrologic cycle, environmental processes, and sustainability—the powerful notion that everything we engineer should support economic prosperity, environmental health, and thriving communities.
We welcome students from across Colorado, throughout the United States, and around the world. In particular, with our downtown Denver campus and many graduate courses scheduled in the evening, we are Colorado’s best bet for working professionals in metropolitan Denver seeking top-notch engineering graduate education.
HESE graduate students may pursue the master of science (MS), the master of engineering (MEng), or the doctorate (PhD).
HESE graduate coursework requires breadth and depth. For breadth, students take at least one graduate course in each of (1) hydrologic engineering, (2) environmental engineering, and (3) sustainability engineering. For depth, students take at least two additional courses in one of those three areas. The program also includes graduate-level electives, allowing students to customize their program to match their intellectual and professional interests.
