ARE YOU:
- Busy with your work schedule?
- Can not attend training within week days?
- Looking for refresher course on specific engineering topics and can not find an intensive course to serve your needs?
- This course might be the right thing to meet your needs!
The distance education program works as follows:
- Each course is 4-6 weeks in duration.
- You will receive a set of notes each week covering the course material via the internet.
- A one hour video-conference session will be conducted by your instructor each week. The objective of this session is to assist in solving the assignments as well as answer student questions that should be sent to instructor early enough prior to the meeting time. In addition with being able to communicate with the instructor, you will also be able to communicate with other students in the same class and watch their questions answered as well. A high speed internet connection is strongly recommended for this feature.
- Each set of assignments must be completed and submitted by the indicated date and your completed assignment will be marked and returned by your instructor.
- To gain the most from your course, it is highly recommended that you participate fully in all discussions and assignments. Please remember that each course has 4-6 weeks duration and set dates for assignments to be submitted. You will be informed of these dates when you receive the course schedule.
*Course commencement date is subject to instructor availability.

 Instructor Katy Modaressi, Ph.D., P.Eng.
Dr. Katy Modaressi is a senior process engineer, certified professional engineer and certified project manager with Associated Engineering (Ont). She has more than 16 years of work experience in different areas of environmental engineering. She obtained her Masters degree in Environmental Engineering and her PhD in Environmental Engineering from the University of Windsor. She also completed her Post Doctoral Fellow (PDF) at the University of Windsor, working on a novel technique for the soil remediation with particular work on the removal of refinery waste.
Her Ph.D thesis work was in the area of process modeling for advanced oxidation treatment for emerging chemicals, with specific research topic of treatment, removal and process modeling of Bisphenol A, using advanced oxidation techniques. Her Master thesis was on the process optimization of textile industry wastewater treatment, for which she used her pilot plant results to optimize the existing wastewater treatment facility.
She authored/coauthored more than 19 journal and conference papers, abstracts and magazine articles along with 7 journal papers in preparation or already submitted.
She also has extensive hands on experience in her field, from designing water and wastewater treatment plants to optimizing existing plants.
