MS CIVIL & ENVIRONMENTAL ENGINEERING -- 2000-01
Catalog
General Characteristics
The Master of Science program in Civil and Environmental Engineering has the following objectives:
·
Job-entry education for the more complex areas of engineering, such as research and development, innovative design, systems analysis and design, and managerial engineering;·
Updating opportunities for practicing engineers;·
Graduate preparation for further study in engineering, leading to the Doctor of Engineering or Ph.D. degree;·
Graduates who are able to maintain currency in their fields.Prerequisites
For admission as a classified graduate student, an applicant must hold a bachelor's degree in engineering or a closely related physical science with a minimum GPA of 3.0 in the last 90 quarter units (60 semester) attempted. Applicants are required to submit satisfactory scores for the General (Aptitude) Test of the Graduate Record Examination. An applicant who meets these standards but lacks prerequisite coursework may be admitted as a conditionally classified student and must make-up any deficiencies before advancement to classified graduate standing.
Information pertaining to specific requirements for admission to graduate standing (classified or conditionally classified) may be obtained from the Graduate Coordinator, Civil and Environmental Engineering Department.
Program of Study
Graduate students must file a formal study plan with their adviser, department, college and university graduate studies office by no later than the end of the quarter in which the 12th unit of approved courses is completed. The formal program of study must include a minimum of 45 units (at least 24 of which must be at the 500 level). With the graduate adviser's approval, students select their elective units in one of the following areas of study: geotechnical engineering, transportation and planning, or water resources and environmental engineering.
The broad curriculum requirements for the MS in Civil and Environmental Engineering are:
* a core of 10 units as required;
* a minimum of 26 units of adviser approved electives within the major;
* a minimum of 9 units of adviser-approved electives outside the major;
* at least 24 units of the 45 unit program at the 500 level;
* a comprehensive written examination (non-thesis option) or an oral defense examination (thesis option).
Two program options are available:
Thesis option. 36 units of adviser-approved coursework, 9 units of thesis research/design, and an oral thesis defense examination administered by a panel of three faculty.
Non-thesis option. 45 units of adviser-approved coursework and a written comprehensive examination administered by a panel of three faculty (maximum of three opportunities to pass this examination).
