Civil engineers focus on planning and building public infrastructure like roads, highways, water systems, buildings, and bridges. They play a key role in developing society's foundational systems. Becoming an engineer requires at least a bachelor's degree and a solid foundation in mathematics and sciences. Civil Engineering offers various specializations, such as Environmental and Water Resources, Structures and Applied Engineering, and Transportation Systems.
As an Engineering student, you can choose to specialize in a specific area of interest and pursue a career in that field. Regardless of the specialization, completing the core requirements for the School of Engineering is essential first.
The educational goals of the Civil Engineering undergraduate program are to equip our graduates with the knowledge and abilities necessary to:
actively engage in the engineering profession and practice, covering management and administration in public, private, or academic sectors across technical fields like construction, environmental, geotechnical, structural, transportation, and water resources engineering,
pursue leadership roles in the profession, which may involve obtaining professional engineering licensure to design and implement solutions for civil engineering challenges in natural and built environments, and
engage in continuous learning through advanced studies and professional development.
