Engineering Science Degree, Civil Engineering Area of Concentration

Associate of Science Degree
MC students using surveying equipment

Civil engineers are concerned with the design of large and complex structures—dams, bridges, transportation systems, and the like. They also deal with hydraulics, pollution control, and surveying. Subdivisions within the field include: construction management, environmental engineering, geotechnical engineering, structural engineering, transportation engineering, and water resources engineering.

Program Outcomes

Upon completion of this program a student will be able to:

  • Identify, formulate, and solve basic physics and engineering problems in structural mechanics.
  • Analyze and design simple structures using analytical and numerical methods in the area of civil engineering.
  • Use appropriate computer programming and applications software in civil engineering.

Curriculum

Suggested Course Sequence: Civil Engineering

A suggested course sequence for students follows.

  • All students should review the advising guide andconsult an advisor.
  • Find out about related programs and course in theFields of Studysection.
  • Most courses have either assessment levels that must be met or prerequisites (courses that must be taken first). Part-time students and those who need to meet assessment levels or take prerequisite courses will take longer to complete a degree. An advisor will help make sure you are taking your courses in the right order.
  • All degree-seeking students must take a central group ofGeneral Education英语、数学、艺术、行为和社会科学、人文和科学的课程。这些课程包括在以下建议的课程顺序中。
