Civil Engineering

Bachelor of Science (BSc) Degree in Civil Engineering

Requirements:

The Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering degree requires the completion of 120 units of course work. A minimum of 60 units must he at the upper division level. The undergraduate civil engineering program is designed to provide a wellbalanced curriculum stressing the fundamentals pertaining to such fields as transportation, surveying, water resources, structures, geotechnical and environmental engineering as well as computer science.

Prerequisites:

A high school diploma or the equivalent (GED). Every incoming undergraduate, upon entrance to the Institute, must demonstrate an acceptable level of proficiency in English composition. Appropriate preparatory work in English Composition will be required, if deemed fit by the Faculty Advisor.

Prescriptive Education:
