The Department of Civil Engineering within the College of Engineering and Applied Sciences provides graduate programs culminating in MS and PhD degrees, along with a graduate certificate. These programs aim to educate future civil engineers in making significant discoveries, creating innovative technologies, and implementing cutting-edge solutions to enhance the safety, durability, and sustainability of critical infrastructure. Students can explore a comprehensive curriculum with specialized studies across key civil engineering disciplines. The programs focus on interdisciplinary problem-solving for society's urgent challenges, particularly in upgrading urban infrastructure. Faculty members engage in advanced research, collaborating closely with graduate students on both practical and theoretical projects.
Research examines the design, optimization, management, and integration of complex adaptive systems, including transportation networks, cyber-physical-human systems, smart interconnected systems, and intelligent automation technologies to develop self-regulating urban infrastructure.
