The educational objectives of the undergraduate program are:

  • To instill in our students a sense of the scholarship and leadership of the civil engineering profession.
  •  To educate and prepare students for a lifelong career as practicing professional civil engineers who are ethical and socially responsible.
  • To produce graduates with a strong academic base for advanced studies.

       To achieve these objectives, the department has outlined the   

       following program outcomes:

1)      Apply fundamentals of mathematics, science, and engineering to solve problems and enhance lifelong learning (satisfying ABET Criterion 3 a & i).

2)      Enhance fundamental engineering skills for encouraging a lifelong career in civil engineering (ABET Criterion 3 a, e, & i).

3)      Offer hands-on experiences and improve professional communication through discussion, oral presentations, or written reports (ABET Criterion 3 a, b, e, g, i, & k).

4)      Apply engineering skills to the design of materials, elements, or structures (ABET Criterion 3 a, c, e, i, & k).

5)      Emphasize ethical, social and economic considerations while promoting professionalism and knowledge of contemporary issues (ABET Criterion 3 f, h, & j).

6)      Provide opportunities to work in multi-disciplinary teams or otherwise engage in critical decision making in preparation for professional practice (ABET Criterion 3 a, c, d, e, i, & k).

7)      Develop knowledge of a specialization within civil engineering (geotechnical, structural, transportation, or water resources engineering as required by ABET Criterion 9 Curriculum and the ASCE BOK).

8)      Understand the roles of project management, construction, public policy, and business administration in engineering practice and encourage leadership (the ASCE BOK).

 

The educational objectives of the graduate program are:

  • To provide master level graduates with the necessary engineering skills to engage in lifelong careers as practicing professional civil engineers who are ethical and socially responsible.
  •  To develop master level engineering graduates with a broad understanding of the problem-solving, design, and research skills necessary to operate in the interdisciplinary arena of civil engineering.
  • To provide master level candidates with sufficient depth in at least one of four areas in civil engineering (geotechnical, structural, transportation, or water resources) to be able to design increasingly complex systems in that area.
