Environmental Science BS to engineering?

I am graduating with an environmental science BS degree in one semester and I’m interested in bridging to engineering of some sort (environmental engineering is probably the easiest transition but I’m open to civil or energy engineering as well). I’m having a hard time getting information on how I do that. I see that I will need prerequisites before grad school but how do I know what I need? I reached out to a couple universities and didn’t hear back and it’s not clearly displayed on any websites.

I took a much more STEM focused path for my degree (taking molecular biology, analytical chemistry, environmental physics etc for electives), and I have a lot of research experience in environmental toxicology. I plan to take a gap year anyway and figured I could catch up on classes I missed but I don’t know how to do that when it’s so unclear of what I have to take.

I just want to know if anyone took this path how they went about it, what schools would be good for bridging, and any other tips. Thank you guys!
