BS of Civil Engineering

Program Educational Objectives

Civil engineers plan, design, construct, operate and maintain public infrastructures such as buildings, bridges, dams, airports, power facilities, treatment systems, water supply, and transportation systems. The Program Educational Objectives (PEOs) are:

  • Have successful and professional careers in civil engineering and related industries demonstrated by career advancement, recognition, and technical competency.
  • Demonstrate continuous learning through professional development, advanced degrees, membership in professional societies, and/or registration during their early career.


Student Outcomes

The student outcomes of the programs require that the student upon graduation demonstrate the following:

  1. an ability to identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, and  mathematics.
  2. an ability to apply engineering design to produce solutions that meet specified needs with consideration of public health, safety, and welfare, as well as global, cultural, social, environmental, and economic factors.
  3. an ability to communicate effectively with a range of audiences.
  4. an ability to recognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations and make informed judgments, which must consider the impact of engineering solutions in global, economic, environmental, and societal contexts.
  5. an ability to function effectively on a team whose members together provide leadership, create a collaborative and inclusive environment, establish goals, plan tasks, and meet objective.
  6. an ability to develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data, and use engineering judgment to draw conclusions.
  7. an ability to acquire and apply new knowledge as needed, using appropriate learning strategies.


The Civil Engineering Program includes the planning, designing, construction, and maintenance of structures and altering geography to suit human needs. Some of the numerous subdivisions are transportation (eg, railroad facilities and highways); hydraulics (eg, river control, irrigation, swamp draining, water supply, and sewage disposal); and structures (eg, buildings, bridges, and tunnels).
