The College of Engineering & Science offers a combined Bachelor of Civil Engineering/Master of Civil Engineering program. High school students can be admitted directly into this accelerated program.

Civil Engineering is the most diverse engineering field. Depending on the industry, you may work on: airports, bridges, buildings, canals, dams, environmental cleanup, excavations, harbors, highways, industrial facilities, landfills, construction or demolition, piers, pipelines, reservoirs, roads, site planning, tunnels, Navy Seabees, and water and wastewater treatment plants.

Civil Engineers focus on making global sustainable systems. Our student projects make a difference in the world, such as environmental clean-up projects, rapid transit plans, or urban renewal assistance.

Since many engineering problems and solutions have roots in human behavior, you will learn communication skills, team working, ethics and decision making. Additionally, since engineering problems need practical solutions, our program includes co-operative job assignments in industry . The experience is valuable for your resume when seeking full-time employment.

As a part of the curriculum, students are exposed to all areas of Civil and Environmental Engineering, including structures, transportation, geotechnical, hydrology and the environment.

The mission of the Program is to provide a broad-based education and design experience that enables students to address complex and multi-faceted Civil Engineering problems. The Program also seeks to provide students the fundamental tools to enable them to evolve in the profession in response to changing technology and societal needs and expectations.

In order to complete both the BCE and MCE degrees in five years, the student must (a) be very well prepared as an incoming freshman, ready to take our core Engineering courses;  (b) satisfy all the admission criteria (see below), and (c) maintain a 3.25 GPA in order to take graduate level courses while still an undergraduate.
