Graduate Program
The Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering offers the master of science in civil engineering (M.S.C.E.). In conjunction with the College of Engineering and Mineral Resources, the master of science in engineering (M.S.E.), and the doctor of philosophy degrees are available with emphases in civil engineering.
Students tailor their program of study to satisfy their own special interests, with guidance from a faculty advisor. Opportunities abound within the master’s and doctoral tracks for a research experience which provides a chance for a student to tackle an engineering problem individually, with guidance from a faculty advisor. The graduate program in civil engineering was established with the aim of developing its students’ abilities to use today’s contemporary methods of engineering analysis and design to solve tomorrow’s engineering problems.
