本系於民國81年奉教育部核准成立海洋環境工程科。
本系為全國技職院校唯一培育海洋環境工程專業人才之系所。

面對淨零轉型、氣候變遷、循環經濟及新興污染等全球環境挑戰，海洋環境工程系以環境工程為核心，培育具備污染防治、環境監測、資源循環及淨零永續等跨領域能力的專業人才。

課程涵蓋水與空氣污染防治、廢棄物處理與資源化、環境分析與智慧監測、環境管理及永續技術，並延伸至海岸與海洋環境，培養學生從污染源辨識、環境監測與分析，到工程控制及永續管理的整合能力。透過實驗實作、工程應用及產業接軌，使學生具備解決產業與環境實際問題的專業能力。

本系鄰近台積電廠區及楠梓產業園區，坐落於南臺灣高科技產業發展的重要區域，學生所學可銜接半導體、電子及製造業對污染防治、廠務環保、環境監測、資源循環與永續管理等專業人才的需求。畢業後除環境工程、環境檢測及環保產業外，亦可投入半導體與高科技產業、工程顧問、淨零與永續管理、資源循環、公部門及海洋環境相關領域，拓展多元職涯發展。

In response to global environmental challenges such as the transition to net zero, climate change, the circular economy, and emerging contaminants, the Department of Marine Environmental Engineering places environmental engineering at the core of its education, cultivating interdisciplinary professionals with expertise in pollution control, environmental monitoring, resource circularity, and net-zero sustainability.

The curriculum covers water and air pollution control, waste treatment and resource recovery, environmental analysis and smart monitoring, environmental management, and sustainable technologies, while extending these applications to coastal and marine environments. Students develop integrated capabilities spanning pollution source identification, environmental monitoring and analysis, engineering control, and sustainability management. Through laboratory training, hands-on engineering applications, and industry engagement, students acquire the practical and professional skills needed to address real-world industrial and environmental challenges.

Strategically located near TSMC facilities and the Nanzih Technology Industrial Park, the Department is situated within one of southern Taiwan’s key high-tech industrial hubs. Its curriculum aligns with the growing demand in the semiconductor, electronics, and manufacturing sectors for professionals in pollution control, environmental management of facility operations, environmental monitoring, resource circularity, and sustainability management. Graduates can pursue diverse career opportunities in the semiconductor and high-tech industries, environmental engineering, environmental testing and analysis, engineering consulting, net-zero and sustainability management, resource circularity, the public sector, and marine environmental fields.
