Graduate Program
Undergraduate Background Courses for Students Without Baccalaureate Degrees in Civil Engineering
The civil engineering faculty welcomes students from other disciplines to the MSCivE program. In order to insure that
all students are prepared for graduate work in civil engineering we require the completion of certain undergraduate background courses.
This set is determined by the academic advisor or the supervisory committee (depending on the option selected) and will vary according
to student's needs and background. The set of required undergraduate courses must be completed before any graduate courses are attempted.
| Mathematics (15) |
- A full calculus sequence, including MAT 2311 (4), MAT 2312 (4), and MAT 2313 (4).
- Ordinary differential equations, MAT 2302 (3).
|
| Basic Science (11) |
- One semester of general chemistry, CHM 2045 (3); and a general chemistry laboratory, CHM 2045L (1).
- Two semesters of calculus-based physics, PHY 2043 (3), PHY 2044 (3); and one physics laboratory, PHY 2048L (1).
|
| Engineering (21) |
- A mechanics sequence consisting of statics, EGM 3510 (4) or EOC 3105 (3); dynamics, EGM 3400 or EOC 3113; and strength of materials,
EGM 3524 (3) or EOC 3150 (3).
- A civil engineering sequence (12) consisting of a coherent set of courses in water resources engineering, and/or structural engineering
suited to the student's program of study.
- At least two engineering laboratory courses are included in the undergraduate civil engineering courses.
|
| Computer Programming (3) |
- A course in computer programming using any modern programming language.
