根据美国劳工统计局的数据，预计2016年至2026年间，土木工程师的就业人数将增长11％。我们的土木工程课程通过必修课程为学生提供数学，科学和工程基础知识。然后，学生在结构，岩土，环境，水资源，交通，铁路或海洋和沿海工程等重点领域进行技术选修课。我们还提供土木工程，环境工程，可持续基础设施和环境可持续性方面的辅修课程。我们的教师都是活跃的研究人员，可确保本科课程的内容不断更新并保持在具有挑战性的技术水平上，并整合了发现学习的知识。本科生有机会与教师和研究生一起担任研究助理，以获得薪资或独立学习学分。该部门
Employment of civil engineers is projected to grow by 11 percent between 2016 and 2026, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Our civil engineering program prepares students with foundations in math, science, and engineering through required courses. Then, students take technical electives in the focus areas of structural, geotechnical, environmental, water resources, transportation, railroad, or ocean and coastal engineering. Minors in civil engineering, environmental engineering, sustainable infrastructure, and environmental sustainability are also offered.<br>Our faculty are active researchers, ensuring that the content of the undergraduate program is constantly renewed and maintained at a challenging technical level and integrates discovery learning. Opportunities abound for undergraduates to work with faculty and graduate students as research assistants, either for pay or independent study credit. Research in the department covers a broad range of topics with particular strengths in bridge design, construction, evaluation and rehabilitation, applications of composite materials to concrete, steel, and earth structures, field studies and numerical and physical modeling of wave/shoreline interactions, intelligent transportation systems, management and operation of civil infrastructure systems, natural disaster risk modeling and sustainability.
