Graduate Information
The Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering offers a range of opportunities for advanced study in areas related to societal infrastructure and safety. Programs of study and research at the M.S. and Ph.D. levels are ongoing in four main focus areas: environmental engineering, geotechnical engineering, structural engineering, and transportation engineering. Within each focus area, students select from a variety of topics such as air pollution and industrial hygiene, domestic and industrial water supply, waste minimization, treatment and disposal, environmental geotechnology, geotechnical and foundation engineering, structural analysis and design, earthquake engineering and structural dynamics, intelligent transportation systems, traffic flow theory, pavement design and management.
