The following are general guidelines for successful admissions into the Ph.D. in Infrastructure and Environmental Systems program:

The equivalent to a U.S. baccalaureate and a master's degree, from a college or university accredited by an accepted accrediting body, in architecture, construction, engineering, earth sciences, energy, environmental studies, geology, management, resources economics, transportation, or a related field with a minimum undergraduate GPA of 3.20 and a minimum graduate GPA of 3.50 (on a 4.00 scale) in all graduate work. Applicants meeting these requirements will be admitted to the Advanced Standing Track (see Degree Requirements for details).
Applicants holding only baccalaureate degrees with an undergraduate GPA of 3.75 or above may be considered for admission into the regular track (see Degree Requirements for details).
Applicants working toward a master's degree or holding a maser degree in an unrelated field with a minimum GPA of 3.50 will be admitted into the regular track (see Degree Requirements for details).
Acceptable scores on the verbal, quantitative, and analytical sections of the Graduate Record Examination (GRE) are expected to be in the upper 50th percentile. However, the GRE is not required for applicants who meet the admissions requirements for the Advanced Standing Track and have a minimum graduate GPA of 3.65.
An acceptable TOEFL or IELTS score as required by the Graduate School for international students.
Three letters of reference, two of which must be from faculty members.
An essay of less than 500 words to address the applicant's motivation and research issues of interest.
Students entering the program are expected to remediate any coursework deficiencies identified by their advisory committee in the first semester after enrolling in the program. The required coursework depends on the background of the student and is established by the INES Program Director and the student's research advisor.


For non-native English language speakers: official and satisfactory scores on the English language proficiency scores on the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) or the International English Language Testing System (IELTS) are required. A minimum score of 83 on the Internet-based TOEFL or a minimum overall band score of 6.5 on the IELTS is required for admissions consideration.
