Environmental Engineering/ Water Resources | day in my life as a grad student

[@NANA-wz5ru]

I’m currently studying environmental and water technology and this was very insightful! Please make more of these :)

[@nataliegayoso]

This makes me so happy to hear! Thank you! Definitely will be posting more this year so stay tuned for more of these videos :)

[@yajurjagmohan7993]

Hi, Does it require any programming/coding skills ?

[@nataliegayoso]

@@yajurjagmohan7993 no, it didn’t for me! Which is partially why I liked it ha

[@Diana6053]

Great Vlog I'm interested in pursuing a master's in water resources. I currently live in North Austin working in the enviro lab for Round Rock. This was really insightful ! Thank you !

[@nataliegayoso]

That’s amazing! I encourage you to go for it if you like the research component of it all! Good luck to you at your job 🥰

[@duaneowens7777]

Great. I am doing environmental for bachelor. Which companies to you recommend interning for. Was thinking NASA and EPA

[@sinaamiri6524]

Hi.I hope you are well. I am currently studying environmental fluid mechanics at gronoble alps University in France 🇫🇷 😀. 🎉🎉

[@xtser2983]

Can you do a video on career outlook/job opportunities positions available for environmental engineers??

[@nataliegayoso]

This is a great idea! I will look into this for sure and make a video on this topic 😊

[@heyhey3789]

Love this!! Pls keep these vlogs up. :D

[@nataliegayoso]

Thank you ☺️ that’s so sweet of you!

[@rajvaidya1691]

Wow! really interesting research you are working on!

[@vincentokoye2041]

Hi... I'm new to your page. I'm currently in my final year, studying Water resources and environmental engineering... I Love your research topic.

[@nataliegayoso]

Hi! So good to hear you’re doing the same thing. & thank you so much, it’s definitely something I enjoy researching!

[@hanifahchoute9585]

How would you describe environmental engineering? I’m an undergrad in chemistry!

[@shuuchann6669]

Yes youre my role model

[@nataliegayoso]

@@shuuchann6669 thank you so much!

[@RamMohammadJosephKaur]

Also, I saw windows and mac software in your video. Do you have 2 computers?

[@nataliegayoso]

Yes I do. My personal computer is a Mac and the windows laptop is provided to me by my university. I use the windows when I need to use specific software like ArcGIS or MatLab and my Mac for everything else!

[@DamionSmith-c6o]

What do you plan to do after college ? and what made you want to go into environmental engineering instead of some other engineering degree?

[@nataliegayoso]

@@DamionSmith-c6o hi! I’m almost at 2 years post grad and I’ve been working in consulting and I really like it! I decided to go w civil because I had interest in a lot of the sub-disciplines it offered like; structural, transportation, water resources, and environmental- ultimately I chose to focus my electives and research in environmental. Hope that helps!

[@brianmwase2994]

Hi.. Brian from uganda. In my First year water resources engineering. I need more of your guidance

[@au2au2]

I knew that river looked familiar! I'm studying environmental engineering at New Mexico Tech, about an hour south of ABQ. Very awesome research you're working on! Any particular career interests once you graduate?

[@nataliegayoso]

The rio grande! So cool you go to Tech I have a few friends that went there for undergrad :) not 100% sure what career path I’m gonna take yet!

[@miguelbermudez5426]

So far, is grad schools easier or harder than undergrad? I was wondering how the clases were and if what you learn in undergrad is helpful or if a lot of math is involved on assignments and tests? Also I am doing a B.S. in EnvE Engr. so would that better prepare me for EWRE or should I have done the CIVE track?

[@nataliegayoso]

Hi there, in my opinion I would say grad classes are easier then undergrad. I have less tests but more presentations. Less assignments but more class participation and group projects. However if you do research, like I am that can be “harder” in some ways because you are having to do a lot of writing and experiments and sometimes things don’t always work out how you would expect so it’s a lot of trial and error. I would say the things I learned in undergrad are really helpful and your background in Environmental Eng is a great foundation for EWRE!

[@lingkenfiliteku3950]

I'm a civil engineer too baby ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@allison240]

Hi girl! I want to have a specialization in renewable energy and I also want to do an undergraduate program in environmental engineering. Is it possible? Because I heard that environmental engineering is more about water or sanitary industry and does not have so much focus in the energy side. Can you tell me if it's right?

[@nataliegayoso]

Hey there, renewable energy and environmental engineering definitely go hand in hand, so yes you can do it! I’m actually doing that right now for my internship. I feel like environmental engineering is such a diverse degree where you can get so many different type of jobs and working w renewables is definitely one of them!

[@barshabijayinipanda5951]

How to get admission in your clg for PhD purpose? I am from India

[@rae7269]

Hi! I want to build waterways and systems. What kind of education do i need and what engineering major should i choose?

[@brahimchouklati6943]

Civil engineering

[@upside_iq]

Civil engg.

[@yajurjagmohan7993]

Hello, I am planning to do master's in Environmental engineering, I want to ask does it require any programming/coding skills ??

[@nataliegayoso]

@@yajurjagmohan7993 hi! I personally did not have to do any programming or coding, which for me was good news because that’s not my strong suit haha

[@shubhamnanda99]

What kind of jobs you can get after completing water resource engineering

[@nataliegayoso]

This is a great question! Water resource engineers can do a lot of different things, same with environmental engineers. On a typical day you might work on establishing sustainable use of resources by conserving water, building dams and conveying water to users. Designs water or wastewater treatment plants for cities or industries. Design and implement river, lake, and stormwater quality sampling and analysis programs. Design and manage programs to clean up polluted land and water. Work with private companies, governmental agencies, and public organizations to assure environmentally responsible development of new projects. Develop recycling programs to maximizer reuse of wastewater and solid wastes. Develop long-term management plans for water, air and land resources. Present environmental solutions at public meetings. And this list continues... but these are just some things that I have either seen colleagues work on, I have done, or have read about. Hope this helps!

[@shubhamnanda99]

@@nataliegayoso Thank you so much.

[@RamMohammadJosephKaur]

" Water Resources Engineering" ....didn’t know such a field/specialisation even existed.

[@nataliegayoso]

Yes! It’s a discipline within civil engineering!

[@ousmanediallo-ne6mf]

A great major 👏👏👏

[@nataliegayoso]

Agreed!

[@rivacinematic]

can I work as an Environmental engineer with echological engineering degree?

[@nataliegayoso]

I’m not familiar with ecological engineering. It wasn’t a discipline offered at my university but I looked it up and it seems like yes, you can work as an environment engineer w that degree! Good luck to you :)

[@er.anoopofficial1304]

Nice vlog..

[@mapalokapya7704]

i love what you do

[@fahadkhan66]

can water resources and environmental engineers get job after graduation ?

[@nataliegayoso]

Of course!
