Degree Programs

Requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering are listed under curriculum.  These requirements include a minimum of 120 units in four areas: civil engineering, engineering science, mathematics and science, and general education. The major Civil Engineering areas emphasized in the curriculum are:

  • Construction Engineering – plan, coordinate, and supervise the building of infrastructure facilities.
  • Environmental Engineering – design and supervise the construction of systems for waste disposal, and for air and water pollution control.
  • Structural Engineering – design and supervise the construction of structures of various forms, including bridges and buildings.
  • Water Resources Engineering – design and supervise the construction of systems for water supply, hydropower, irrigation, drainage, flood control, and navigation.


To provide depth in one or more of these areas, students choose three Civil Engineering elective courses in addition to the core CE curriculum.

The program structure allows students to integrate course work with a minimum of seven months of paid, professional practice (co-op).
