About the Department/College

The Department of Civil Engineering, Construction Management and Environmental Engineering (CECMEE), within the Steve Sanghi College of Engineering is comprised of twenty-one full-time faculty. We provide students with a well-rounded, personalized, education in civil engineering, environmental engineering, and construction management; with an emphasis on producing baccalaureate students who are fully prepared for professional practice upon graduation. The Department offers bachelor\'s and master\'s degrees in civil engineering, environmental engineering, project management, and construction management. Our Mission is \"to create the next generation of ethical, work-ready, high-performance construction and civil and environmental engineering professionals.\"

The Construction Management (CM) Program serves 348 undergraduate students and is accredited by the American Council for Construction Education. The Civil Engineering and Environmental Engineering Programs (CENE) jointly serve 313 undergraduate and 22 graduate students and are accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET.

The CM Program receives substantial industry support, allowing us to tap into a broad range of expertise. The Generation Next Sponsorship program provides external funding for faculty development and travel; curriculum improvements; and student competitions and field trips. This industry support also allows us to offer the Construct for Practice (C4P) lab, which is a hands-on academic experience that differentiates our program from the competition. Our faculty includes recognized and award-winning teachers who have extensive construction and management experience.
