Degree Requirements

The CEE program leading to the Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering (BSCE) requires a minimum of 180 credits.  The coursework consists of prerequisite and preparatory courses, general education requirements, and CEE major coursework.

A minimum cumulative GPA of 2.0 is required overall and in the CEE major for graduation.  This degree is ABET accredited.

This program typically takes four years to complete.  It may take longer depending on the circumstances of the individual students.  For a sample four-year schedule, click here.

COURSES WITHIN THE CEE MAJOR

The CEE program covers six areas of focus: construction, transportation, geotechnical, structural, water, and environmental engineering.  First-year majors (CEE “juniors”) enroll in required 300-level courses as preset, options: Track I or II.  (See back for more information.)  The CEE “senior” or second year allows students flexibility to complete core technical requirements, explore areas of their own interest, and engage in a capstone design course of their choice.

NOTES:

• AMATH 351 and 352 may be substituted in place of MATH 307 and 308. 
• Transfer students seeking course substitutions should be prepared to present a course description and syllabus
• UD Elec = CEE Upper Division Science and Engr Electives
• Tech Elec = CEE Technical Electives
