The campus will remain closed until 12 noon Thursday, 02/13/25. Students should log into Canvas for specific class information from their instructors. Please contact event organizers for information on specific activities. Normal operations will resume at 12pm on Thursday.
Whether you choose to pursue a bachelor of science degree in civil engineering, an integrated bachelor-master’s degree in architectural engineering, or a graduate degree in civil or construction engineering, you’ll see why the Department of Civil and Architectural Engineering enjoys an excellent reputation with employers in all these engineering disciplines.
Not only do we offer architectural and civil engineering programs fully accredited by ABET, our professors are continuously revitalizing the curricula to prepare graduates to serve the needs of the society as well as the built and natural environment. Our professors perform practical research and projects with areas of specialization that make them highly qualified to teach in their fields.
Additionally, the department was one of the first in the country to align student outcomes with CEBOK3, also known as the Civil Engineering Body of Knowledge, which defines the knowledge, skills, and attitudes necessary to enter the field of civil engineering at the professional level.
