Civil Engineering Curriculum
After completing the core engineering -sequence, a student enters
this curriculum and follows a baccalaureate program leading to the B.S.
degree or a professional program leading to the M.Eng. degree as well
as the B.S.
Undergraduate concentrations include construction, environmental, geotechnical,
structural, and transportation engineering. Following the sample four-year
schedule is the recommended collection of courses for each of these concentrations.
Subject to other requirements, students may use core engineering electives
to accelerate their entrance into the program. Students also may take
courses in related fields. Courses bearing the following codes are suggested
for particular consideration in consultation with the student’s adviser:
ARCH, ECSE, MANE, ENVE, MATH, CSCI, ERTH, and DSES.
The following represents a typical four-year civil engineering program.
Students who are convinced that they want to become civil engineers are
urged to follow this plan of study in lieu of the general core engineering
program presented earlier. Required or strongly recommended core engineering
electives are shown for optimum scheduling.

- For these two courses, order does not matter. ENGR-1300 may be replaced with CIVL-2961.
- Choose either ENGR-1600 or CSCI-1100.
- For Multidisciplinary Elective I, choose either ENGR-2250 or ENGR-4750. For Multidisciplinary Elective II, choose either ENGR-2350 or ENGR-4300.
- Can be satisfied with Computer Science I.
- Text below lists the allowable courses.
- This course will be fulfilled from a published list at the start of each semester.
- Can be taken either semester of the senior year.
A minimum of 128 credit hours is required for this curriculum. Nonengineering courses graded satisfactory/unsatisfactory are not included within this 128-credit-hour requirement. The Pass/No Credit option can be used only for free electives with something other than a CIVL or ENVE code and the humanities and social sciences electives. All other courses used to satisfy the degree requirements must be taken on a graded basis.
