For admission to the graduate program in environmental engineering, students:

(a) Must have received a bachelor's degree in engineering, or one of the allied sciences

(b) All International students should have a score of 550 or more in the TOEFL test; and

(c) Must have an overall grade-point average of 3.0 or a 3.0 average in the last half of undergraduate work (provisional admission is possible for students whose scholastic record is not entirely satisfactory).

Non-civil engineers must also meet the applicable requirements listed below:

(a) Engineering graduates, but non-civil engineering majors, must take a series of supplemental background courses which include hydraulics, fundamentals of environmental engineering and environmental engineering design courses.

(b) Non-engineering applicants must successfully complete a series of background course work with no grade below C and an overall B-average which includes 16 hours of math through differential equations, 20 hours of pertinent science courses and 29 hours of engineering and advanced sciences.

(c) Beginning international students, whose grades and/or course-work cannot be interpreted as equivalent to a bachelor's degree in Engineering from NMSU, may enroll in graduate courses, but courses taken are not considered toward degree requirements until an evaluation is made.
