The Waste Management Institute (WMI) coordinates the interdisciplinary environmental and waste management efforts of the University. The approach to environmental and waste management education at the University rests upon a solid foundation of applied and physical sciences, life sciences, social sciences, engineering, technology, and law/policy. The following academic programs are involved in environmental and waste management activities: Agricultural Education, Agricultural Economics, Architectural Engineering, Animal Science, Bioengineering, Biological Engineering, Biology, Business Administration, Chemical Engineering, Chemistry, Civil Engineering, Computer Science, Construction Management and Safety, Criminal Justice, Economics, Environmental Sciences, Electrical Engineering, Elementary Education, Family and Consumer Science, Graphic Communications, History, Horticulture, Industrial Systems Engineering, Journalism and Mass Communications, Manufacturing Systems, Mechanical Engineering, Natural Resources, Landscape Architecture, Liberal Studies, Mathematics, Nursing, Political Science, Physics, Psychology, Sociology, Social Work and Soil Science. Additionally, the Waste Management Institute administers Undergraduate and Graduate Certificate Programs. WMI works with academic departments to tailor environmental related courses to follow an interdisciplinary waste management certificate curriculum. The Waste Management Certificate “highlights” the training of N.C. A&T students in Environmental Security and Waste Management Issues and also adds value to degree programs (graduate and undergraduate). The Certificates are awarded at a special ceremony.
