  Admission Requirements

  Students may enter the master program one of two ways: Traditional (for new master students or 樱桃视频 undergraduate students who were not in the 5-year bachelor/master program) and 5-year bachelor/master (for 樱桃视频 undergraduate students).

  Traditional Master Program

  New master students or 樱桃视频 undergraduate students who were not in the 5-year bachelor/master program may apply for the graduate program online. Typical (but not absolute) minimum requirements include an undergraduate GPA of 3.0 and a bachelor degree in Civil Engineering or closely related discipline. Although the Graduate Record Exam (GRE) and Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL)  (if applicable) are not required as part of the application, they can be useful in facilitating the admission process. Each applicant must also be approved by the department chair and the College of Engineering & Science dean's office.

  5-Year Bachelor/Master Program

  Incoming 樱桃视频 undergraduate students and current Civil Engineering undergraduate students who are within two years of graduating and have a GPA of 3.25 or better, may apply for the accelerated 5-year bachelor/master program. If accepted, students may take up to nine graduate credits that will double-count towards both their bachelor and master programs.  Students need to maintain a 3.25 GPA to remain in the accelerated program.

  Master of Civil Engineering Degree Requirements (30 credits)

  The Master of Civil Engineering may be completed with a thesis (with advisor approval) or a non-thesis plan. At least half (15 credits) of the program must be selected from graduate-level only options.

  The thesis plan requires six credit hours of thesis (CIVE 5990) and 24 credit hours or more of coursework.

  The non-thesis plan includes a total of 30 credit hours of coursework.

  Either plan may be supplemented by a cooperative education preparation course or actual cooperative education placements (CTA); however, these credits may NOT be used toward the 30 credit hours required. 

  Required courses (6 credits):

  • ENGR 5020 Design of Experiments (3 credits) *
  • ENGR 5872 Sustainable Engineering

  Civil Engineering courses (9 credits):

  • CIVE courses (at least 3 courses/9 credits)  

  Thesis or Coursework (6 credits):

  • Thesis students: CIVE 5990 Civil Engineering Master's Thesis (6 credits)
  • Non-Thesis students: select two courses (6 credits) from ARCH, CIVE, CHM, ENGR, MENG, and/or MTH

  Electives (9 credits):

  • Select three courses (9 credits) from any combination: ARCH, CIVE, CHM, EMGT*, ENGR, ENT, MENG, MBA*, MTH, MPD*

  Courses offered in civil, architectural, and environmental engineering may be supplemented with approved courses in other branches of engineering, mathematics, chemistry, biology, law and other areas - based on advisor/chair approval - to suit the student's individual needs. 

  Specializations

  Students may choose to specialize in one of the following areas based on their interests: Structural/Architectural, Construction Management, Geotechnical, or Road/Bridge. Suggested courses in each of the specializations are listed below.  Courses noted with * are offered as graduate-only sections. 

  Students should consider a minimum of 15 credits from one area. Students interested in environmental engineering are advised to pursue the Master of Environmental Engineering degree. However, students in the Master of Civil Engineering program may select courses in the environmental engineering area if they are relevant.

  Master of Civil Engineering and Master of Architecture pathway

  The College of Engineering & Science (E&S) offers a Master of Civil Engineering with a focus in construction for students of the School of Architecture & Community Development (SACD) who are concurrently pursuing the combined Bachelor of Science in Architecture (4 year) and Master of Architecture (1 year) degrees. As part of a special arrangement between E&S and SACD, students who are pursuing the Master of Architecture can obtain their Master of Civil Engineering degree with a focus in construction by taking 15 additional graduate level construction-related credits. SACD students must add undergraduate pre-requisite courses to their B.S.Arch curriculum plan as outlined here. 

  Students will be required to complete 15 credits of coursework at the 5000-level in CIVE in order to complete the Master of Civil Engineering degree. Upon approval of the Civil, Architectural, and Environmental Engineering department chair and the E&S dean's office, remaining coursework may be used from the Master of Architecture program.  Students may concurrently take courses in both graduate programs.
