土木工程理学硕士

阿克伦大学的土木工程系提供六个学科的科学硕士学位：计算力学，环境工程，水利工程，岩土工程，结构工程和运输工程。所有课程都使学生能够与经验丰富，知识渊博的教职员工紧密合作，并需要进行严格的研究。土木工程理学硕士（MS）为学生提供必要的技能和技术的高级学习，以加深对土木工程领域的了解。该程序提供论文和非论文选项。论文选择需要24个学期的研究生课程工作和6个学期的论文研究时间。还需要对论文进行口头辩护。
The Master of Science (M.S.) in Civil Engineering provides students with an advanced learning of the skills and technologies necessary to develop a deeper understanding of the field of civil engineering.<br><br>This program offers a thesis and non-thesis option. The thesis option requires 24 semester hours of graduate course work and 6 semester hours of thesis research. An oral defense of the thesis is also required.<br><br>The non-thesis option requires 30 hours of course work. For applicants without prior civil engineering degrees, bridge-up courses are required. This program enables bridge students to complete their M.S. degree in roughly 6 months more than a student entering with a B.S. in Civil Engineering. A Master's in Civil Engineering degree typically requires two years beyond a bachelor's degree.<br>Students pursuing a M.S. in Civil Engineering degree may specialize in environmental engineering, geotechnical engineering, structural engineering, water resources and hydraulic engineering, or transportation engineering.
