BSc in Construction Engineering in Omaha United States | University of Nebraska Omaha

The Charles W. Durham School of Architectural Engineering and Construction offers a Construction Engineering (CONE) program. This major combines engineering, construction, and management coursework to prepare individuals to meet the construction industry's demand for licensed professional engineers. While similar to the construction management program, it places stronger emphasis on engineering, scientific, and technical subjects to satisfy professional engineering licensure requirements. The curriculum centers on applying engineering principles to address practical construction challenges, covering civil engineering, structural principles, materials testing and evaluation, project management, computer-aided design, 3D animation, sustainability, and graphic communication.

Learning Outcomes
Upon completion, graduates of the construction engineering program will demonstrate:
The capability to recognize, define, and resolve intricate engineering challenges using engineering, scientific, and mathematical principles.
Proficiency in applying engineering design to develop solutions that address specific requirements while accounting for public health, safety, welfare, and global, cultural, social, environmental, and economic considerations.
Effective communication skills across diverse audiences.
Awareness of ethical and professional obligations in engineering scenarios and the capacity to make reasoned decisions that account for the global, economic, environmental, and societal implications of engineering solutions.
The skill to collaborate productively in team settings, providing leadership, fostering cooperative and inclusive atmospheres, setting objectives, organizing tasks, and achieving goals.
Competence in designing and performing suitable experiments, analyzing and interpreting data, and employing engineering judgment to reach conclusions.
The ability to gain and implement new knowledge as required through effective learning approaches.
