DEGREE REQUIREMENTS<br />
<strong>The</strong> BSEVE program is accredited by the Engineering<br />
Accredit<strong>at</strong>ion Commission of ABET<br />
(http://www.abet.org). Following the guidelines of<br />
the School of Engineering, a total of thirty-eight<br />
courses are required to fulfill the BSEVE degree<br />
requirements. Of these thirty-eight course credits, a<br />
minimum of 9.5 course credits must be completed<br />
in college level m<strong>at</strong>h and basic science subjects<br />
appropri<strong>at</strong>e to the discipline and a minimum of 14.5<br />
course credits must be completed in engineering<br />
topics, consistent with ABET general and program<br />
criteria. Introductory science and engineering<br />
requirements account for ten courses, with six<br />
humanities, social science and arts electives, and<br />
two free electives. Eight courses serve as engineering<br />
found<strong>at</strong>ion, including two found<strong>at</strong>ion electives.<br />
Twelve courses fulfill the degree concentr<strong>at</strong>ion<br />
requirements. Within the concentr<strong>at</strong>ion requirement,<br />
there are five required core courses (CEE 12,<br />
30, 32, 132 and ES 27), four concentr<strong>at</strong>ion<br />
electives, two design electives, and a capstone<br />
design course (CEE 81). <strong>The</strong> two design electives<br />
are selected from CEE 112 (W<strong>at</strong>er Resources<br />
Engineering), CEE 133 (W<strong>at</strong>er and Wastew<strong>at</strong>er<br />
Plant Design), CEE 136 (Air Pollution Control),<br />
and CEE 143 (Site Remedi<strong>at</strong>ion). An example<br />
sequence of courses for the BSEVE degree program<br />
is provided below.<br />

In addition, to the BSCE and BSEVE, the<br />
department also offers the following undergradu<strong>at</strong>e<br />
degree programs.<br />
Bachelor of Science in Engineering (BSE)<br />
<strong>The</strong> Civil and Environmental Engineering<br />
department administers several programs of study<br />
th<strong>at</strong> lead to the Bachelor of Science in Engineering<br />
degree (BSE). <strong>The</strong>se programs offer students a<br />
curriculum th<strong>at</strong> replaces the engineering concentr<strong>at</strong>ion<br />
and design requirements with focused study in<br />
a rel<strong>at</strong>ed discipline, such as architectural studies and<br />
environmental health.<br />
