An ability to apply engineering design to produce solutions that meet specified needs with consideration of public health, safety, and welfare, as well as global, cultural, social, environmental, and economic factors.An ability to identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, and mathematics.The department’s student outcomes reflect the skills and abilities that the curriculum is designed to provide to students by the time they graduate. Program Educational ObjectivesĬivil engineering graduates will become responsible professionals who analyze, design, construct, manage or operate built and natural infrastructure and systems, and/or will have advance knowledge of the field. The civil and architectural engineering faculty are responsible for delivering an outstanding curriculum that equips our graduates with the broad technical knowledge, design proficiency, professionalism, and communications skills required for them to make substantial contributions to society and to enjoy rewarding careers. All civil engineering students participate in a design project. A group of students works with a faculty advisor to develop a significant design project selected by the group. Seniors, with the approval of the department head, can elect certain graduate courses.Ī special feature of the major is senior design.
#CIVIL ENGINEERING CLASSES PROFESSIONAL#
For instance, students with an interest in water resources engineering may elect advanced courses in hydrology, ecology, and chemistry select senior professional electives in the geotechnical and water resources areas and choose appropriate topics for senior design and senior seminar. Seven of the required courses in the discipline include integral laboratories or field projects for both educational illustration and professional practice exposure.Ĭareful selection of the electives specified in the curriculum can lead to a wide variety of career objectives. A particular focus is the reconstruction of the nation’s infrastructure through solutions that minimize the disruption of social and natural environments.Ĭivil engineering graduates are grounded in the fundamental principles necessary for the practice of this profession in any of its modern branches, including construction management, water resources engineering, structural engineering, geotechnical engineering, transportation engineering, and environmental engineering. The civil engineering major prepares students in the fundamental principles necessary to practice this profession in any of its branches, including construction management, water resources, structural, transportation, environmental, geotechnical, and public facilities engineering.Ĭivil engineers are active in the planning, design, construction, research and development, operation, maintenance, and rehabilitation of large engineering systems.
