土木工程学士学位

土木工程师计划，设计，建造和维护公共工程，例如道路，桥梁和港口。在专注于建筑的同时，他们还研究了结构对环境的影响以及在发生地震和飓风等环境危害时结构的稳定性。该部门的课程涵盖五个不同领域：环境工程，流体力学和水力学，岩土工程，运输工程和水资源工程。学生必须至少在其中两个领域中熟练掌握。设计或监督桥梁，建筑物，水坝，渡槽，运动场，能源场，灌溉和运输系统（例如高速公路，运河，快速运输线等）的施工，以及其他。开发用于市政，工业和娱乐用途的水资源，参与土地开垦，土壤力学和城市规划，通过水净化和适当的废物处理维持水
Civil engineers plan, design, construct, and maintain public works, such as roads, bridges, and harbors. While they focus on building, they also look at the environmental impact of the structure and the structure's stability in the case of environmental hazards, such as earthquakes and hurricanes. The coursework in the department covers five different areas: environmental engineering, fluid mechanics and hydraulics, geotechnical engineering, transportation engineering, and water resources engineering. Students must gain proficiency in at least two of these areas. As they prepare for careers as civil engineers, students will learn how to do the following types of things:<br>Design or supervise the construction of bridges, buildings, dams, aqueducts, sport complexes, energy complexes, irrigation and transportation systems (such as highways, canals, rapid transit lines, etc.), and more<br>Develop water resources for municipal, industrial, and recreational use<br>Participate in land reclamation, soil mechanics, and urban planning<br>Maintain water quality through water purification and proper waste treatment<br>Solve problems involving air pollution and solid and hazardous waste management<br>The civil engineering degree is accredited by the EAC Accreditation Commission of ABET. The job placement rate for students graduating from USU's engineering programs is extremely high.<br>Concurrent Bachelor's/Master's Program:<br>The department also offers a concurrent bachelor's/master's program, which allows USU engineering students to begin taking graduate classes during their senior year as an undergraduate and to complete requirements for both the bachelor's degree and the master's degree concurrently over two years.<br>The APE is designed to meet the qualifications of the first two years of a Baccalaureate Degree.
