Civil engineers are responsible for planning, designing, building, maintaining, and rehabilitating听the complex interrelated technological, social, and environmental dimension of the infrastructure systems on which modern society relies.听To meet these challenges, the Department of Civil, Environmental and Sustainable Engineering听offers a well-balanced undergraduate program that develops graduates capable of solving complex problems with fixed and often limited resources. The application of state-of-the-art skills, a sound understanding of engineering principles, concepts of sustainability and resilience in design, the ability to communicate and articulate ideas, and preparation for lifelong learning are some of the key areas of focus in the civil, environmental and sustainable engineering curriculum. At the completion of the undergraduate program, graduates are well equipped to enter the practice or pursue advanced studies in any of the civil engineering disciplines. The department provides students with the necessary guidance to develop their full potential within the context of their own personal experiences, the expectations of the profession, and societal needs. Our听graduates become听civil engineers听with primary responsibility for听planning, designing, constructing, operating, and maintaining infrastructure critical to public welfare,听safety, and the expectations of听daily life鈥�including buildings, transportation systems, airports, irrigation systems, water supplies, supply systems, and environmental protection facilities.

The Department of Civil, Environmental and Sustainable Engineering听works with its advisory board and other key constituencies to produce the program鈥檚听educational objectives shown below. Specifically, the department has committed itself to providing a program that produces graduates who, within five years of graduation, are:

Capable of designing, building, maintaining, or improving听civil infrastructure systems in the context of environmental, economic, and societal requirements
Serving听the community as ethical and responsible professionals
Engaging听in lifelong learning for professional growth
