土木工程哲学博士-环境与水资源工程

土木与环境工程系提供土木工程硕士学位（硕士学位或非学位）和博士学位。研究领域包括环境工程，岩土工程，结构工程和力学以及水资源工程。研究机会包括水质和修复的生物和化学方面，包括地表和地下水水文学的水资源工程，水文气候学和适应性环境管理以及沿海工程，河流和河口的混合和运输过程。
The Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering offers MS (thesis or non-thesis) and PhD degrees in Civil Engineering. Areas of study include Environmental Engineering, Geotechnical Engineering, Structural Engineering and Mechanics, and Water Resources Engineering. A Master of Engineering (ME) in Civil Engineering degree program (non-thesis) with a concentration in Water and Environment is also offered and is designed to equip students with advanced knowledge in the areas of water and environment. Courses are designed to cover modeling, analysis, and design aspects of engineering and scientific problem-solving. Students gain skills critical to success in their future career, and also earn credit toward professional engineering licensure. The Environmental and Water Resources Engineering areas include: Hydrology, water resources sustainability, hydroclimatology, coastal engineering, river and estuarine mixing and transport processes, wave, tide and sediment dynamics in estuaries, hydrologic response to climate change and adaptive environmental management and policy. Structural Engineering and Mechanics research include: Structural applications of composites, timber and reinforced timber structures, concrete materials, structural health monitoring, and computational mechanics. Geotechnical research areas include: Soil mechanics, unsaturated/gassy soil mechanics, and thermal soil mechanics, slope stability, site investigations, soil-structure interaction, ground improvement, foundation engineering and design of earth retention structures.<br><br>Research opportunities including biological and chemical aspects of water quality and remediation, water resources engineering including surface and groundwater hydrology, hydroclimatology and adaptive environmental management, and coastal engineering, river and estuarine mixing and transport processes.
