Post-Baccalaureate in Civil and Environmental Engineering
Prepare to attend graduate school in Civil and Environmental Engineering!
At Tufts, we offer a Post-Baccalaureate (Post-Bac) program for academically
talented, highly motivated students, with at least a Bachelor of Science or
Bachelor of Arts degree (BS or BA) in disciplines with relevant mathematics and
science content. The concentrated and rigorous Post-Bac program is specifically
designed to prepare students for graduate study in Civil & Environmental
Engineering. Accepted students will develop an individualized plan of study with
their academic advisor based on their academic history and professional goals.
Program of Study
The Post-Bac program requires five, 1-credit hour Tufts courses, and is designed
to be completed in one year. ES 5 and ES 9 may be taken during the summer session
(http://ase.tufts.edu/summer/).
Post-Bac Courses *
- Required (1 course/1 credit hour)
- Foundation Elective (1 course/1 credit hour)
- ES 8 Fluid Mechanics
- ES 9 Strength of Materials
- Concentration Elective (1 course/1 credit
hour)
- CEE 12 Hydraulics Engineering
- CEE 22 Structural Analysis
- CEE 32 Environmental Engineering
- CEE 42 Geotechnical Engineering
- Electives (2 courses/2 credit hours) **
- Take two electives selected in consultation with your advisor.
* Students in the Post-Bac program need to satisfy all
course prerequisites listed on Tufts Bulletin.

Courses numbered above 100 award graduate credit, and are transferable into the
Tufts graduate program in Civil and Environmental Engineering upon acceptance
into the graduate program. Completion of the Post-Bac program does not
