The Department offers two distinct graduate programs: civil
engineering and coastal and oceanographic engineering. The civil
engineering program is offered with the following degrees: Master of
Engineering, Master of Science, and Doctor of Philosophy. The
master's degree in civil engineering is also offered through
the Electronic Delivery of Graduate Engineering (EDGE) program,
which is a distance learning program delivered either via streaming
video or DVD directly to the students. The coastal and
oceanographic engineering program is offered with the following
degrees: Master of Engineering, Master of Science, and Doctor of
Philosophy degree. All degree programs include areas of
specialization in construction, civil engineering management,
geotechnical engineering, water resources and hydrology, public
works, structural engineering, civil engineering materials,
geosensing systems engineering, coastal engineering, oceanographic
engineering and offshore structures, and transportation engineering.
All degrees except the Ph.D. are available in a thesis or nonthesis
option. The nonthesis option has two formats: report and 30-hour
non-report. Students who elect the nonthesis report must
successfully complete a document of substantial engineering content
for a minimum of two hours credit in CGN 6974 for civil engineering
majors, or EOC 6905 for coastal and oceanographic engineering
majors. Minor or supporting work is encouraged from a variety of
related or allied fields of study.
