Civil engineers plan, direct, design and oversee construction of roads, bridges, tunnels and water supply systems and structures. They take the local environment into account, anticipating earthquakes and hurricanes as well as the stress of daily use. The BSCE degree provides students with broad knowledge in civil engineering leading to a variety of careers and professional licensure.
For students interested in a combined bachelor's and master's degree, an accelerated five-year program of study is available.
