Graduate Profile
 
 The graduate of the Environmental Engineering Course will participate actively in taking decisions relating to the prevention, control and/or remedying of environmental contamination through diagnosis, analysis and evaluation, promoting the sustainable use of a territory and its resources.
 They will have the necessary abilities for the integration of theoretical – practical knowledge which will allow them:
  • To design processes and develop technology relating to the prevention, management, control and remedying of contamination using physical, biological or chemical methods.
  • To design and apply programs of evaluation of pollutants using chemical, physical and biological indicators.
  • To participate in studies of territorial legislation, evaluations of environmental impact and environmental auditory as well as whatever other means of environmental management which contributes to the promotion of sustainable development.
 Throughout their academic training, the graduate will acquire a critical – analytical attitude which will allow them to integrate in multi-disciplined groups to carry out scientific research as well as develop and transfer technology into  their sphere of action.
 The ability of the graduate to plan or direct projects as well as make decisions will be gauged by their social sense and professional ethics, joined with a spirit of leadership, creativity, dynamism, competitiveness  - but equally responsibility, thoughtfulness and tolerance.
   
Fields of Action
 
 The professional field of the Environmental Engineer is located in the Industrial Sector and Public Sector at a Federal, State or Municipal level, as well as in National or International Organizations.
 The Environmental  Engineer of the Universidad del Mar will be able to be accomplished as a:
  • Consultant or Assessor of environmental matter of chemical, petrochemical, energy, iron and steel, petroleum, metallurgy, cement, hydraulic, construction and urban infrastructure industries, among others.
  • Consultant or Assessor in evaluations of environmental impact and auditory for the public and private sectors.
  • Coordinator or Director in programs of services for the recollection and management of municipal residual solids, dangerous residuals, etc.
  • Coordinator in programs of environmental security and control in the government sector. (SEMARNAT, PROFEPA etc.).
  • Coordinator or Assessor of research projects and technological innovation on topics of environmental interest, financed by the productive sector, government, non-government organizations etc.
  • Promoter of Environmental Education in Institutions of Higher Education in the public or private sectors.
  • Assessor in the formulation of environmental policies.
