(OP)
Hi Gary SCWSVI:
Thanks for your response. Can you please recommend a textbook or guidance manual that will give me an idea of the what skill sets to learn and look for in a water quality engineering job. Also, can you please let me know if there are any public or private agencies/companies that are looking for water quality engineers. Thanks for your help.

Great field to get into.  Your qualifications are excellent and any water treatment company, health dept, water utility, power plant, government water agency, etc. etc. etc. would be more than happy to give you any additional water quality training you may need. California, in particular, is very much into water quality and should be looking for someone like you.  COME ON IN.

I have a bachelors in Civil and a masters in Civil/Env. Engg. I have been working in the field of env. engg, predominantly hazardous waste management for the last 9 years. I am also a licensed PE Civil in California. I am thinking of trying out water quality engineering jobs. But I am not sure how the job oppportunities are out there in California for water quality engineers and also how much of a learning curve is there to be functioning as full-fledged water quality engineer. PLease let me know, Thanks
 



 

 


RE: Thanks, GarySCWSVI

Can't help with any specifics.  Best bet is to go the the American Water Works Association web site at www.awwa.org

They have lots of info on their "Education and Training" page and Industry Jobs Availability on their "Career Center" page.
