• The design of MSOE?s civil engineering degree program was guided by the Civil Engineering Body of Knowledge requirements developed by the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE). These requirements call for civil engineers to be proficient in both technical and professional skills, including familiarity with issues of business and public administration, public policy, leadership, and teamwork.?
  • Addressing these requirements will equip students to meet the proposed new licensing requirements developed by the National Council of Examiners for Engineering and Surveying, which call for a minimum of a master?s degree or equivalent as a prerequisite for professional engineering licensure.
  • MSOE students will be able to specialize in one of the following three civil engineering specialty areas: structural engineering (StrE), environmental and water resources engineering (EWRE), and construction management (ConM). Students may choose to use their technical electives taking classes from other specialty areas, or to pursue a minor in a related discipline such as mathematics, chemistry, or physics.
