About Master’s Program,
The Master of Science degree in Civil Engineering (MSCE) is designed to provide civil engineering professionals with the opportunity to prepare for careers concerned with the critical problems of a multifaceted society. Civil engineering education and research activities focus on projects that are typically large and costly, with potentially profound environmental, social, and financial impacts. The MSCE is a research-oriented thesis program, while the MCE is a course-only technical training program.
Small class sizes ensure personal attention from the highly qualified faculty. The department has state-of-the-art laboratories for each major technical area. These labs — housed in the Engineering Building (EB), Biotechnology, Sciences and Engineering (BSE) building, and Applied Engineering and Technology (AET) building — include:
Geo-materials (AASHTO Accredited)
Geotechnical
Environmental
Structures
Hydraulics
PC/CAD
