Diana, Riverside, CA AddedTuesday, October 6, 2015 at 1:09 PM If I majored in Engineering could I still become an Environmental Engineer? Hello, my name is Diana. I'm a senior in highschool applying, literally right now, and some of the schools I want to go to do not have the specific Environmental Engineering major. Do I pick Civil Engineering as my major? Or Engineering in general? If I majored in Engineering could I still become an Environmental Engineer?? Thank you so much.

Civil Engineering with an Environmental focus or minor is a great option. Remember you can always get a masters degree to help specialize in the future.
