l have a question
1.Water Supply and Sanitation Engineering
2.Water Resources Engineering
3.Water/Wastewater Engineering
4.Hydraulic Engineering
5.Environmental Engineering
What actually is the difference between these majors and to be more specific *water supply and sanitation engineering*,in which major does it actually fall in?

[@RePicture]

All of the five areas you've listed are specialties within Civil Engineering. However, sometimes Environmental Engineering is a separate program and sometimes it's combined with Civil Engineering. Environmental Engineering typically involves more chemistry and biology than Civil Engineering.
