The Master of Science in Civil Engineering allows students to specialize in one of the following six areas of concentration:

• Structural Engineering
• Geotechnical Engineering
• Environmental and Water Resource Engineering
• Highway and Traffic Engineering
• Construction Management and Engineering
• Urban Systems Engineering and Management

Students may also elect to follow a general program by taking courses across several areas of concentration.

The degree MS in Civil Engineering prepares graduates to practice their profession at an advanced level. Specific objectives of the program are to provide the skills and knowledge necessary to:

• Specialize in one of the primary sub-disciplines of civil engineering or to achieve depth across a number of the sub-disciplines
• Design and analyze civil engineering infrastructure
• Understand civil engineering materials, technologies and processes as applied to modern civil engineering infrastructure
• Obtain civil engineering project management skills
• Provide a basis for continued, lifelong learning in the civil engineering profession

The PhD in Civil Engineering is a research-oriented degree intended for those whose goal is career in basic civil engineering research and/or teaching at the university level or in private research organizations. Specific objectives of the doctoral program are to develop the skills and knowledge necessary to:

• Specialize within one of the sub-disciplines of civil engineering
• Perform independent fundamental research in one of the sub-disciplines of civil engineering
• Produce a piece of fundamental research that meaningfully advances the state-of-the-art of one of the sub-disciplines of civil engineering, and is publishable in a first-tier refereed civil engineering-related journal
