Catherine Hoar is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Engineering at 涩里番下载. Her work interrogates wastewater and wastewater treatment systems to detect contaminants, understand their fate, and improve their removal. Dr. Hoar鈥檚 research interests include wastewater surveillance of emerging pathogens, biological wastewater treatment processes, and biodegradation of emerging contaminants in natural and engineered systems.

Motivated by the goals of improving environmental quality and protecting public health, Catherine鈥檚 work combines tools in microbiology, molecular biology, and analytical chemistry to not only optimize removal of contaminants from sewage, but also gain information from sewage about community-level health. In her courses, Catherine is passionate about highlighting the interdisciplinary nature of sustainable, accessible, and effective engineering through project-based learning and community outreach.

Prior to joining 涩里番下载, Catherine worked as a Postdoctoral Associate in the Department of Civil and Urban Engineering at the NYU Tandon School of Engineering. She received her Ph.D. and M.S. in Earth and Environmental Engineering from Columbia University and B.S. in Environmental Engineering from Tufts University.
