Bachelor of Science - Civil Engineering (Optional Co-op)
About Bachelor of Science - Civil Engineering (Optional Co-op)
The B.S. in Civil Engineering at UMass Lowell offers rigorous training in the four main areas of civil engineering: Environmental engineering, Geotechnical engineering, Structural engineering, and Transportation engineering.
The first year begins with fundamental courses in college writing, mathematics and science. Students will also take an introduction to civil and environmental engineering course that covers computer-aided engineering and design.
During the second year, students will learn the principles of engineering mechanics, including statics, dynamics and strength of materials. Other courses cover statistics, surveying, geomatics and differential equations. At this point, students can begin the Professional Co-op Program by taking a professional development seminar.
Junior and senior year coursework provides a working knowledge of structural, environmental, geotechnical and transportation engineering. Students can also take two professional electives, which will count toward a master’s degree if they are accepted into the combined B.S.E./M.S.E. program. In the senior year, students will participate in a comprehensive capstone design project, which is typically a service-learning project with a community partner.
