Civil engineering is the oldest of all the engineering fields, yet it is as contemporary as the need to provide solutions to today's environmental problems and to develop advanced transportation systems. The civil engineer plans, designs, builds, and operates projects for the advancement and well being of society while coordinating and conserving human resources. Civil engineering projects range from the small to the monumental and include such ventures as public water systems, buildings, bridges, rail and highway networks, wastewater treatment plants, solid and hazardous waste disposal facilities, airports, and soil conservation and flood diversion controls.
The civil engineering profession offers a variety of opportunities. Civil engineers may work in private employment or with public agencies. They may work indoors in activities such as planning and design, or outdoors in areas such as construction supervision. Employment is possible any place where people live.
The objectives of the civil engineering program are as follows:
1. To produce graduates who are prepared for entry-level positions in: foundation and
earthwork design and analysis; environmental engineering; transportation planning,
design, materials, and operation; and concrete and steel structural design and analysis.
2. To prepare graduates for advanced civil engineering studies.
To this end, all students must take courses in geotechnical (soils), environmental, transportation, and structural engineering. Courses are designed to present "real world" applications without sacrificing conceptual and theoretical basics. Students complete design problems in each of these areas; and, as part of the senior year, they participate in a major design project (CVEG 4994, Civil Engineering Design).
With minor exceptions, first-year students take the prescribed courses for all first-year engineering students. All courses listed for the first three semesters should be completed before attempting third and fourth year courses. The full curriculum follows, with the number of credit hours given at the left followed by course titles and numbers.
