Stanford University also has a highly recognized environmental engineering program. It offers a unique interdisciplinary approach, combining research and coursework from various disciplines to tackle environmental challenges from multiple angles

The University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley) has a renowned environmental engineering program, with a strong emphasis on both engineering principles and the biological and physical sciences related to the environment.

Furthermore, you might want to consider the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. Their environmental engineering program is part of the broader Civil and Environmental Engineering department, allowing for a rich, cross-disciplinary perspective.

A final mention is the Georgia Institute of Technology (Georgia Tech), which offers both bachelor's and master's degree programs in environmental engineering focusing on the sustainable use and conservation of natural resources.
