MSOE’s Master of Science in Civil Engineering (MSCVE) program is designed to equip students with the advanced knowledge and skills necessary for professional practice in the 21^st century. The MSCVE program satisfies the new civil engineering Body of Knowledge requirements for graduate programs developed by the American Society of Civil Engineers. Students will be able to specialize in one of the following areas: structural engineering, environmental engineering, water resources engineering and construction management. Students may also choose to take up to nine elective credits from MSOE’s Rader School of Business graduate course offerings to help fulfill the specialization requirement. Satisfactory completion of the MSCVE program also fulfills the proposed educational requirement promulgated by the National Council of Examiners for Engineering and Surveying that calls for a minimum of a master’s degree or equivalent as a prerequisite for professional engineering licensure.

MSOE’s MSCVE program is tailored to the student who already has an undergraduate degree from an ABET-accredited civil engineering program. Students who do not have an ABET-accredited undergraduate degree in civil engineering will likely have to take one or more prerequisite courses to satisfy ABET civil engineering undergraduate degree requirements prior to graduation from the MSCVE program. This prerequisite requirement is necessary because the MSCVE program will be seeking ABET accreditation when first eligible to do so in 2016-17, becoming one of the very few graduate civil engineering programs in the country to have that distinction.

Note to prospective graduate students: The master’s-degree only portion of the MSCVE program will begin accepting students in Fall 2014. For more information on the freshman-to-master’s degree program, see the Undergraduate Academic Catalog.
