Fields of Study
Civil Engineering (CVEG) is a multi-faceted field. Professionals in our field grace multiple touchpoints in our society.
Civil Engineers design, maintain, and operate the major frameworks in our communities. Think about the many buildings, roadways and systems at play in your hometown — there are carefully placed infrastructures in place, and civil engineers are at the core of them.
TRANSPORTATION
Transportation engineering is the study of how to get from Point A to B, traffic flow, road layout, and road materials.
STRUCTURAL
Structural engineering is a field that studies structural responses to applied loads. Think bridges, buildings and more!
ENVIRONMENTAL
Environmental engineering is the study and protection of water, air, soils, and sediments.
GEOTECH
Geotechnical engineering is the study of soil and rock behavior within natural and engineered structures.
