Design + Build
Not many degree programs allow you to use something as large as an earthquake simulator to conduct your studies. But civil and environmental engineers do just that.
Well-versed in building structures, roads and bridges as well as ensuring environmental sustainability, graduates of the civil and environmental engineering program are well prepared to handle the nation’s increasing demand for infrastructure projects like expanded transportation, energy-efficient construction, water supply and pollution control systems.

CivilEngineering
(B.S., M.S. & Ph.D.)
Civil
engineers apply scientific and engineering principles to improve the built
environment and provide a sustainable local and national infrastructure
system. Civil Engineers might analyze and design structural components
of buildings and bridges, improve seismic safety, understand
soil-structure interactions, design and test new asphalt and concrete mixtures,
or analyze transportation systems.

EnvironmentalEngineering
(B.S., M.S. & Ph.D.)
Environmental
engineers apply scientific and engineering principles to
preserve, restore and sustain the natural environment while maintaining
clean air, water, and land resources. For example, Environmental
Engineers provide safe drinking water supplies, prevent pollution
of the aquatic environment, understand the fate and transport
of contaminants, treat contaminated effluents and restore polluted sites.
