土木工程理学硕士-可持续和弹性基础设施系统

越来越多的咨询或行业雇主将硕士学位视为入门级学位。博士 学位强调在该领域处于领先地位的高级研究和参与创新研究。我们的系提供该国最顶尖的土木与环境工程研究生课程之一.MS学位可以有或没有论文就可以完成。如果学位论文是该计划的一部分，则MS学位需要32个学分时的研究生课程学分（其中32个小时中有8篇包含论文），无论文时则需要36个小时。可以在一年或更短的时间内完成MS非论文学位.2011年秋季启动的SRIS计划针对基础设施系统的新兴方法，侧重于互连基础设施（例如结构，岩土和水）的弹性和可持续性城市环境中的互动
An increasing number of employers in consulting or industry consider the master's degree as the entry-level degree. The Ph.D. degree emphasizes advanced study and participation in creative research that is at the leading edge of the field. Our department offers one of the top-ranked Civil and Environmental Engineering graduate programs in the country.The M.S. degree may be completed with or without a thesis. The M.S. degree requires 32 credit hours of graduate course credit if a thesis is part of the program (with 8 of the 32 hours comprising the thesis), and 36 hours without a thesis. It is possible to complete the M.S. non-thesis degree in one year or less.The SRIS program, launched in fall 2011, addresses emerging approaches to infrastructure systems focusing on resiliency and sustainability of interconnected infrastructure--for example, structural, geotechnical and water interactions in urban environments. The program aims to prepare new generations of civil engineers who are ready to address pressing societal issues while developing needed infrastructure. For example, students will be able to use system level approaches and thinking to achieve sustainable use of material and resources in construction of engineered systems. Students will learn to balance short-term costs of facility development and the need for integrating this facility within an infrastructure system that is resilient to natural and human-made disasters.
