專業(yè)概況
在這里學什么?
Civil engineering is the engineering of the constructed facilities we encounter every day: buildings, bridges, tunnels, and dams; waterways, railways, and highways; water power, irrigation, drainage, and water supply; wastewater and hazardous waste disposal; environmental health systems.
As a civil engineering major, you'll learn how to plan, design, construct, and manage public and private infrastructure and facilities. You'll also be prepared to address emerging engineering issues related to sustainability, climate change, and new energy resources. You will be prepared to pursue a career in industry, government, research, or academia. Frequent interaction with the public is unique to the field of civil engineering.
The bachelor's degree program in civil engineering also offers a concentration in environmental resources engineering. Engineers in this field apply civil engineering principles and processes to solve problems relating to air pollution, water pollution, solid waste and hazardous waste management, renewable energy, and water resources engineering.
Civil engineering major
As a civil engineering major, you'll apply engineering, mathematics, and science skills to analyze and interpret data and to design and conduct experiments. Our world-class faculty recognize that both civil and environmental aspects of the curriculum are integral to the training of engineers who can address the complex problems of today and tomorrow.
The curriculum focuses on:
Computing: access to software and hardware used by civil engineers for computer-aided design
Communications: effective communications skills to help you work successfully with multidisciplinary teams
Career preparation: design your program of study to pursue a career in environmental engineering, geotechnical and soil mechanics engineering, structural engineering, transportation engineering, or hydrology and water resources engineering
For the bachelor's degree in civil engineering, you'll complete 68 credits in general and civil engineering with a total of 122 credits overall.
Core courses: Intro to environmental engineering; Fluid mechanics; Soil mechanics; Structural analysis; Transportation engineering.
Elective courses include advanced hydrology, geoenvironmental engineering, hazardous waste management, intelligent transportation systems, pavement design and management, structure materials, wastewater treatment, and water treatment.
All senior engineering majors participate in a capstone project where you will work as a team on a civil engineering project assigned by a practicing professional.
UMassD advantages
Capstone projects: senior engineering students work in small teams on real-world, industry-specific challenges that demand analysis, proposals, prototypes, and solutions.
Community: participate in annual competitions; join student organizations such as the American Society of Civil Engineers, National Society of Professional Engineers, the Society of Women Engineers, the National Society of Black Engineers, and Engineers Without Borders.
Experience: participate in co-op and internship programs with construction firms and government agencies—often while also earning money for college.
New initiatives: collaborate, create, and explore at our IDEA Studio and the Center for Scientific Computing and Visualization Research.
