CE-MSCE - Civil Engineering

Program Website

The M.S.C.E. offers five areas of emphasis, civil engineering leadership, construction management, geotechnical engineering, structural engineering and transportation systems management, while offering breadth in the areas of environmental engineering and water resources. A minimum of 30 credit hours beyond the baccalaureate degree is required. For full-time graduate students, six credit hours may involve research and completion of a thesis, with approval from the students adviser, with an additional 24 credit hours of coursework. The program also has the flexibility to meet the needs of part-time students, already working in industry, who typically take the nonthesis route with 30 credit hours of coursework. The vast majority of civil engineering graduate courses are offered with evening class times or via distance learning to accommodate the schedule of working professionals.
