Program Details

Our Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering program was designed for students interested in becoming well-rounded engineers. Our department focuses on interdisciplinary education. That means you won’t just learn civil engineering. Instead, you’ll get a much broader perspective.

Our courses help you understand how the decisions you make as a civil engineer can impact the communities you work in. You’ll learn about sustainable engineering, environmental impact, and even mechanical engineering – all to ensure you’re prepared to identify, formulate, and solve complex problems that make communities run more efficiently.

What it91³Ô¹Ï like to be a Jimmie in the Engineering Department?

Communication is big in our department. It91³Ô¹Ï one thing to be able to solve problems. Communicating your ideas and effectively conveying their impact – that91³Ô¹Ï an entirely different skill. One that91³Ô¹Ï extremely important when you’re a civil engineer.

Our curriculum blends the liberal arts with mathematics, science, and engineering. As a civil engineering student, you’ll learn how to:

• Apply engineering design to problem solve, while considering public health, safety, and welfare – as well as global, cultural, social, environmental, and economic factors.
• Communicate effectively with a range of audiences.
• Recognize ethical and professional responsibilities and make informed judgments.
• Function effectively on a team to provide leadership, create a collaborative and inclusive environment, establish goals, plan tasks, and meet objectives.
• Develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data, and draw conclusions.
• Acquire and apply new knowledge as needed, using appropriate learning strategies.

Life After Graduation

Our program prepares graduates to:

• Pass The Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) exam.
• Obtain licensure.
• Integrate technological advances, ethical concerns, and current evidence into engineering practice.
• Lead engineering teams and projects.
• Make meaningful contributions to the engineering profession, as well as the broader community.
