About the Program
The Civil Engineering Department provides a program of study in the planning, design and management of civil infrastructure and service systems. Specialty areas of study offered include transportation systems, environmental and water resources, structures, geotechnical, hydrology, and construction engineering and management.
Objectives
The Program Educational Objectives of the Civil Engineering Department are to:
(1). Assume managerial and/or leadership roles in their chosen professional careers within six years of graduation (e.g. project managers, project engineers, etc).
(2). Be employed and function well in the civil engineering system and processes, and STEM related areas.
(3). Make contributions that advance the current state-of-the-practice in technology and/or research of civil engineering systems and processes; and
(4). Continue their professional development through continuous improvement and life-long learning (e.g. graduate school, professional engineering (PE) licensure, professional certifications, etc.).
Student Outcomes
The civil engineering program student outcomes are:
1. An ability to identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, and mathematics.
1. An ability to identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, and mathematics.
2. An ability to apply engineering design to produce solutions that meet specified needs with consideration of public health, safety, and welfare, as well as global, cultural, social, environmental, and economic factors.
3. An ability to communicate effectively with a range of audiences.
4. An ability to recognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations and make informed judgments, which must consider the impact of engineering solutions in global, economics, environmental, and societal contexts.
5. An ability to function effectively on a team whose members together provide leadership, create a collaborative and inclusive environment, establish goals, plan tasks, and meet objectives.
6. An ability to develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data, and use engineering judgment to draw conclusions.
7.An ability to acquire and apply new knowledge as needed, using appropriate learning strategies.
