Bachelors of Science in Civil Engineering

Course Description

Civil engineering deals with the science and art of engineering applied to the human environment and natural resource needs. The environment has long been the province and concern of civil engineers. Involved in planning our cities, communities, and larger regional areas, civil engineers build our world. They conceive, design, and construct public works such as highways, streets, bridges, water distribution and wastewater collection systems, and wastewater and industrial waste-treatment plants. Civil engineers respond to society’s ecological and environmental problems by joining with other engineers, as well as with physical, biological, and social scientists, to protect our natural resources and create a better physical and social environment for all people.
