Sustainable, environmental engineering with an innovative "We Can Do Better" approach.
I am very passionate about sustainable and environmental engineering problem solving and design. I am interested in pursuing a graduate degree in environmental engineering, but am having trouble narrowing my focus. I would like to study innovative industry problem solving by looking at industrial processes with a "We Can do Better" approach. This refers to but is not limited to sustainability, efficiency, environmental impacts ... I will have completed an undergraduate degree in Forest Engineering at the University of New Brunswick, Canada, this year, my goal is to have a "Focused" topic selected by around January 1st 2012. I would really like to study something that can yield workable results. Again this is my passion and I plan to make a career of solving such problems.
Thank you everyone for reading this and giving your feed back.

to head out with a "we can do better" approach but ....for one who is in the engineering field....may I ask ....who do you include and exclude...in is "we" category? You will want to (perhaps) understand the "Environmental Engineering" is a name generated out of the word business of the last 30 years. There is in fact NO division of Engineering or Applied Science (one can read "Life" here ) that does't include Environmental Conscientiousness.
IOW Environmental Conscientious AWARENESS applies to every field NOT an exclusivity which must be confined to its own identity. This mistake (promoted by government bureaucracy ) generates waisted energy in the form of misguided ( by good intentions) directions, causing red tap, misspent $$$ and unachievable standards when, simple common sense and due care and attention WORKS WELL.
