Environmental Engineering: Review for the Professional Engineering Examination, (Hardcover)

This book helps readers become licensed professional engineers (PE's). Licensure demonstrates high standards of professionalism, knowledge, and ability. Moreover, there are career opportunities that are only available to PE's. In order to meet the work experience requirement, PE examinees have generally been out of school for some time. This book summarizes topics covered in the PE environmental engineering exam, refreshing readers on subjects they may not have worked with since their undergraduate days. Sample exam questions use "logical distractors," answers that result from common mistakes, to help readers avoid these mistakes during the actual exam. Solutions to the questions, included in the book, carefully explain why the logical distractors are incorrect. Although intended for engineers preparing for the PE environmental engineering exam, the book is useful in undergraduate engineering courses that cover environmental engineering topics.
