Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering (B.S.C.E.) (Concentration in Energy Infrastructure). The Concentration in Energy Infrastructure is intended for students interested in a specialized focus in energy as it relates to civil engineering, infrastructure, and environmental issues related to the development, generation, and distribution of energy. Students completing the requirements described in this program will receive a special designation (Concentration in Energy Infrastructure) on their transcripts showing they have completed the energy concentration.
To obtain a Concentration in Energy Infrastructure in Civil Engineering, the student must complete the following core courses:
- MEGR 3111 Thermodynamics; (3)
- ECGR 2161 Basic Electrical Engineering I; (3)
- CEGR 4246 Energy and the Environment; (3)
- CEGR 4090 Energy Infrastructure Systems. (3)
Additionally, the student must complete one course from the following elective courses:
- CEGR 4247 Sustainability; (3)
- CEGR 4090 Air Pollution; (3)
- CEGR 4108 Finite Element Analysis and Applications; (3)
- CEGR 4121 Prestressed Concrete Design; (3)
- CEGR 4146 Advanced Engineering Hydraulics; (3)
- CEGR 4162 Transportation Planning (3)
- CEGR 4182 Transportation Environmental Assessment; (3)
- CEGR 4222 Structural Steel Design II; (3)
- CEGR 4226 Reinforced Concrete Design II; (3)
- CEGR 4278 Geotechnical Engineering II. (3)
Through careful course selection and scheduling, a student can obtain the Energy Concentration within the required 128 hour BSCE curriculum. For the Energy Concentration in Civil Engineering, the student must earn at least a 2.5 GPA in the five course program.
