Overview
The Department of Civil Engineering offers a Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering (B.S.C.E.) degree. BSCE is the road map that leads to a professional engineering degree that emphasizes the engineering sciences and civil engineering design concepts needed to properly design, construct, and maintain naturally and/or physically built environmental systems such as roads, highways, bridges, dams, canals, water treatment plants, wastewater treatment plants, and buildings. The Civil Engineering curriculum prepares the student for both professional practice and graduate study.
At the graduate level, the department has offerings for the Master of Science (M.S.) and Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) in engineering science with an emphasis in civil engineering. The latter graduate degrees are listed under the School of Engineering.
