COURSE CURRICULUM

The Master of Engineering (M.Eng.) in Civil Engineering is a 30-credit structured graduate program designed to provide advanced professional training for students preparing for careers in engineering practice. The program focuses on developing technical expertise, analytical skills, and practical problem-solving abilities applicable to modern civil and transportation engineering challenges. Candidates pursuing this degree in the civil or transportation engineering disciplines must possess an accredited bachelor’s degree in engineering, while applicants interested in environmental engineering may also qualify with a Bachelor of Science degree in the physical or natural sciences. The M.Eng. program emphasizes coursework and professional development rather than research, making it ideal for students seeking to enhance their technical competencies and advance within industry, consulting, or public-sector roles. Although the degree does not require a project or thesis for completion, students may choose to undertake one for either 3 or 6 credits, with approval from their academic adviser. This optional component allows students to apply classroom knowledge to practical or research-based problems, enriching their educational experience. Overall, the Civil Engineering M.Eng. program offers a comprehensive, application-oriented curriculum that bridges academic theory and professional practice, preparing graduates for leadership and innovation in the engineering field.
