Degrees:
Bachelor of Science with a major in Civil Engineering (BS CiE)

Overview:
Virtually all needed structures were designed and built by civil engineers. At MU, a civil engineering student can specialize in four basic areas: structural engineering, environmental/water resources engineering, transportation engineering and geotechnical engineering.

The Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering offers a Bachelor of Science with a major in Civil Engineering (BS CiE).

The program provides extensive laboratories for concrete and steel materials testing, soils testing, fluid mechanics, traffic operations, and chemical and microbiological analysis related to water supply and waste-water management.

Most graduates take the Fundamentals of Engineering Exam.

Academic Information

Admission Requirements:
To be recommended for the bachelor of science degree in civil engineering, a student must earn a UM system GPA of at least 2.0, and earn a GPA of at least 2.0 in all UM system courses taken that have an Engineering (ENGR, BAE, CECS, ChemE, CE, EE, IE, MAE, NE) designation. For the requirement involving courses with an Engineering designation, only the last grade in a repeated course will be used in the calculation.

Minimum GPA for Admission: 2.0
