Qualification Requirements

Graduate admission to the department of civil and environmental engineering is highly selective. The graduate admissions committee considers the entire application package in making admission decisions. We carefully review each applicant's academic transcript, GRE scores, TOEFL or IELTS scores (if applicable), personal statement, letters of recommendation, and resume. Students with a non-CE undergraduate background will be considered for admission on a case-by-case basis, assuming they've met certain core requirements and have demonstrated competency in the senior-level courses of their undergraduate major. Please contact the professor you're interested in working with to inquire about admission if you're an interested, non-CE student.
