MSc in Civil Engineering (Non-Thesis) in Orono United States | University of Maine

The Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering provides Master of Science programs (both thesis and non-thesis options) and Doctoral degrees in Civil Engineering. Specializations encompass Environmental Engineering, Geotechnical Engineering, Structural Engineering and Mechanics, as well as Water Resources Engineering. The Environmental and Water Resources Engineering disciplines cover: Hydrological systems, sustainable water resource management, hydroclimatic interactions, coastal zone engineering, fluvial and estuarine mixing phenomena, sediment transport mechanisms, impacts of climate change on water cycles, and environmental policy adaptation. Structural Engineering and Mechanics research focuses on: Composite material applications in construction, engineered wood systems, concrete technology, infrastructure monitoring systems, and advanced computational modeling. Geotechnical research specialties involve: Soil behavior analysis, unsaturated and gassy soil dynamics, thermal properties of soils, slope stability assessment, subsurface exploration techniques, soil-structure interface behavior, ground enhancement methods, foundation design principles, and earth retention system engineering.
