Course Description
Facilities Engineering is the application of multidisciplinary engineering required to effectively manage the technical aspects of a portfolio of physical assets. Practitioners in the public sector include city and town engineers, university facilities engineering organizations, Federal and State government installations, and port authorities, among others. Engineers in the industrial sector include those in the petrochemical industry, pharmaceutical plants, food/poultry and meat processing plants, IT and manufacturing plants, all of which are subject to environmental regulation. There are literally thousands of such regulations spread across Federal, State, and local jurisdictions. The Facilities Engineer must, from an engineering perspective, know how to identify and comply with these regulations. Environmental compliance may very well be the only aspect of engineering where an individual can incur both civil and criminal liability for violation of these laws. This course will teach the student the gamut of environmental regulations across the engineering disciplines.
