The main areas of environmental research involved include but not limited to the following:

Bioconversion Of Agricultural Waste
Bioremediation and Environmental Restoration
Environmental Policy and Risk Management
Environmental Toxicology
Microbial Ecology
Water Quality and Microbiology Of Water
Wetland and Coastal Ecology

The SOE Core Research Lab Facility is well equipped with a suite of modern, state-of-the-art research equipment that facilitates the conduct of top-notch, world-class environmental research. Such equipment includes ICP OES Optima 8000, Prisma ESEM, Dionex ICS 2100, WinPact Fermentation System, GC Triple Quad (GC-QQQ), HPLC, and Getinge Sterilizer/Autoclave, to name a few.

These pieces of research equipment play a vital role in facilitating the research that takes place at the facility. Most of the major equipment are housed at the school’s Core Lab.
