The discipline of engineering encompasses a broad range of more specialized fields of engineering, each with a more specific emphasis on particular areas of applied mathematics, applied science, and types of application. BS Civil Engineering is one of the broadest engineering disciplines both in terms of the range of problems that fall within its purview and in the range of knowledge required to solve those problems. It prepares the students for part of a profession that applies the basic principles of science in conjunction with mathematical and computational tools to solve problems associated with developing and sustaining civilized life on our planet.
PROGRAM OFFERED:
- The BS Civil Engineering program prepares students to be a licensed Civil Engineer. The graduates can pursue a career specific among the five major fields of Civil Engineering: Construction Engineering and Management, Geotechnical and Geo-Environmental Engineering, Structural Engineering, Transportation Engineering, and Water Resources Engineering.
