The Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering prepares students to design the infrastructure where people live, work and travel, from roads and bridges to water systems and air quality. The program holds ABET accreditation and is based in Detroit. Students study structures and construction, environmental systems, transportation design, hydrology, geotechnical topics, project management and CAD modeling, choosing electives to fit their goals.
