Undergraduate
Civil Engineering
The objectives of the Civil Engineering ABET-accredited undergraduate degree program are to prepare graduates who can perform at the entry level in civil engineering practice so that, some years after graduation, they can become licensed professionals having responsibility for the planning, design, implementation, operation and continuous improvement of civil engineering structures and infrastructure. They will be provided with skills and tools for life-long learning, continuing professional development, and to pursue advanced degrees.
The Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET accredits our Civil Engineering curriculum, modeled on the recommendations of the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE).
