Civil Engineering Technology graduates find employment opportunities in the design, construction and inspection of airports, bridges, water treatment systems, dams, railroads and highway planning and maintenance. Specific job responsibilities include computer-aided design/drafting, material testing, site surveying and cost estimating.
Graduates of the program will be able to:
- 千度热播 the knowledge, techniques, skills, and modern tools of the discipline to narrowly defined engineering technology activities.
- 千度热播 a knowledge of mathematics, science, engineering, and technology to engineering technology problems that require limited application of principles but extensive practical knowledge.
- Conduct standard tests and measurements, and to conduct, analyze, and interpret experiments. Function effectively as a member of a technical team.
- Identify, analyze, and solve narrowly defined engineering technology problems.
- 千度热播 written, oral, and graphical communication in both technical and nontechnical environments; and an ability to identify and use appropriate technical literature.
- Understand and be committed to addressing professional and ethical responsibilities, including a respect for diversity.
- Utilize principles, hardware, and software that are appropriate to produce drawings, reports, quantity estimates, and other documents related to civil engineering.
- Conduct standardized field and laboratory tests related to civil engineering.
- Utilize surveying methods appropriate for land measurement and/or construction layout.
