Enhance your career and expertise with a degree program that is geared to topics included as part of the structural engineering (SE) licensing examinations. This program offers a transformative experience that blends academic rigor with practical, industry-relevant skills that are needed in the profession. Led by renowned faculty and industry experts, you’ll delve into cutting-edge coursework and hands-on projects that prepare you to excel in structural engineering. This program can be taken as part of a Master of Science in Civil Engineering or may lead to it if you choose to continue your graduate studies.
The Graduate Certificate in Structural Engineering (GCSE) is a 12-credit hour certificate program that is intended to assist individuals in enhancing their knowledge in strategically selected topics within the structural engineering profession. In a traditional Bachelor’s of Science in Civil Engineering program, students learn detailed information about structural analysis and the design of reinforced concrete and hot-rolled steel structures. However, there are several additional subjects expected to be learned within the profession or in graduate studies. The courses in this certificate program are dedicated to these additional topics, which are not commonly offered at the bachelor level, and design standards associated with them.
To obtain a GCSE, students are required to earn 12 credits by completing four of the seven following graduate courses:
