Degree Requirements
Majors are required to take Mathematics 161, 162, 263, and 264; Physics 131;
Chemistry 121; Engineering Science 101, 225, 226, and 230; either Chemistry 122
or Engineering Science 231; Civil and Environmental Engineering 251, 271, 201,
311, 321, 331, 341, 351, 361, 372, 473 and three departmental electives; two
science or mathematics electives; two technical electives (upper-level mathematics,
science, or engineering courses, usually requiring one or more prerequisites);
a First-Year Seminar and English 110; five courses chosen from an approved list
of humanities and social science courses (including one course chosen from an
approved list in the fields of economics and/or policy); and two free electives.
Science and Math Electives
Courses in geology, biology, physics, or chemistry will be permitted as science electives, subject to approval of the student’s major department. Math electives must not regress from the math courses that are required to be taken.
Approved Social Science - Humanities Electives
Our program is accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET,111 Market Place, Suite 1050, Baltimore, MD 21202-4012, telephone: (410) 347-7700. Please follow this link to our ABET Educational Objectives and Program Outcomes.
Part of that accreditation requires civil and environmental engineering students to take Humanities and Social Science courses which expose them to the breadth of knowledge outside of engineering and natural science. Please follow this link for the list of Allowable Science, Technical, and Humanities-Social Science Electives.
Technical Electives
Upper-level courses in math, sciences, and engineering which normally require prerequisites are acceptable as technical electives for engineering students, subject to the approval of the student’s major department.
