The mission of the Civil and Environmental Engineering Department is to educate
civil and environmental engineering students to become leaders in the solution
of important societal problems of the twenty-first century. Technically rigorous
and broad in scope, our programs focus on the interactions between the natural
and built environments. CEE programs make extensive use of information
technology for managing complex systems and for integrating the teaching,
research, and design components of engineering education. Our program breadth
includes linkages between engineering disciplines such as environmental,
geotechnical, and chemical engineering, as well as interdisciplinary studies in
areas such as architecture, geology, chemistry, and environmental policy.
The Civil and Environmental
Engineering Department strategic goals, ordered by priority:
- To provide technically rigorous yet broad undergraduate programs in
civil and environmental engineering and related fields.
- BSCE ABET accredited program. Technical focus: environmental,
geotechnical, structural, and water resources options.
- BSEVE ABET accredited program Technical focus: water and
waste-water, solid and hazardous waste, and environmental health
engineering
- Complementary non-ABET accredited programs (BSE/minors).
Subject areas: architectural studies, environmental health.
- To provide technically rigorous yet broad graduate programs in
specific areas of civil engineering and related fields
- Professional MS Programs
- Multidisciplinary MS Programs
- Ph.D. Programs
- Continuing education
- To undertake focused, student-centered research programs in selected
areas of civil engineering and related fields.
- Collaborative research
