CU Boulder environmental engineering students have a variety of interests, both academic and extracurricular. In class they may be focused on producing a sustainable water supply for developing countries, capturing carbon dioxide from power plants, mitigating the ecological effects of the mountain pine beetle, or cleansing Superfund sites of toxic waste. On the weekends, they can be found hiking, blacksmithing, swing dancing, cycling, or volunteering. Read about some of their experiences below.
