土木与环境工程系的任务是教授土木工程科学，分析，设计和管理的基础知识，以使学生有能力从事专业工程师的职业，进行基础研究和应用研究，改善土木知识的状况。工程，以为社区提供有关工程问题的信息和建议，并协助对专业工程师和其他感兴趣的个人进行继续教育。该部门的特殊任务是为少数民族和妇女提供土木工程教育的机会。土木工程工程硕士（M.Eng。）为学生提供有关高级土木工程主题，管理和专业问题的教育。英格兰 学位课程是希望兼职攻读硕士学位的学生或希望在一年内加快完成学业的全日制学生的理想选择。
The Master of Engineering (M.Eng.) in Civil Engineering provides students with education in advanced civil engineering topics, management, and professional issues. The M.Eng. degree option is ideal for students who will pursue a master's degree part-time or for full-time students who desire an option for accelerated completion within one year.<br><br>The specialty (depth) area courses provide students an advanced education beyond the bachelor's degree in a specific civil engineering sub-discipline. The majority of the specialty area courses should be taken from the CEE department. A minimum of 15 credit hours of specialty (depth) is required in the M.Eng. curriculum.<br><br>The supplementary electives are intended to develop the student's complementary multidisciplinary and professional skills required in the civil engineering profession. Supplementary electives may include courses from other civil and environmental engineering areas outside of the chosen specialty, as well as courses from other disciplines that support the professional development focus of the M.Eng. Example supplementary electives outside of engineering include courses in the sciences, mathematics, statistics, computer/computational science, social sciences, public policy, urban and regional planning, business, and law. A minimum of 12 credit hours of supplementary electives is required in the M.Eng. curriculum.<br>Mathematics and quantitative skills are critical in civil engineering work. Therefore a student is required to take at least one course (a minimum of three (3) credit hours) in mathematics, statistics, or computational science.
