Where do environmental engineers work?
Environmental engineers work anywhere where construction is taking place, yes. They are always there analyzing what impact a project is going to have. They work alongside chemical engineers to figure out low impact solutions to factory designs and operations. They work alongside geotechnicals to help with water runoff and studying pollutants in local rivers and streams. They occupy a smaller percentage of engineering jobs, but they are always present. In many firms, an enviromental engineer is THE environmental engineer and maybe even the only one employed. It may be a little harder to find a job as environmental, but they are always needed in some capacity. And yes, lab work is pretty much always there to some extent.
