Civil Engineering Course Requirements

Major in Civil Engineering

The civil engineering program is accredited by the Engineering Accreditation
Commission of the Accreditation Board of Engineering &
Technology, 111 Market Place, Suite 1050, Baltimore, MD 21202-
4012. Telephone: 410-347-7700.

The Civil Engineering Program has adopted the philosophy and goals
of the department. The four major areas of study with the Program are:
structures, environmental, water resources, and transportation.

III. Other Program Requirements
EC 203 Project Management Economics
CH 111 Essentials of Chemistry: General
BI 102 Human Biology
ENWR 305 Technical Writing
MA 131 Calculus of Single Variable Functions
or MA 121-122 Differential and Integral Calculus
MA 232 Differential Equations and Linear Algebra I
MA 233 Multivariable Calculus
MA 334 Differential Equations and Linear Algebra II
MA 314 Probability and Statistics for Engineers
PHIL 206 or 207 Ethics course
PHYS 205-206 Engineering Physics

Students must take the Fundamental of Engineering (FE) exam
within nine months prior to receiving the degree.

To earn a Bachelor of Arts degree with a major in civil engineering, a
student must earn a grade of “C” or better in all of the courses listed
under “Major Program Requirements” and under “Other Program
Requirements.” A lesser grade in any of these courses must be replaced
before the Bachelor of Arts degree with a major in civil engineering
will be granted. In addition, lesser grades in any of these courses
preclude taking subsequent courses for which the deficient courses
are a prerequisite.

Civil Engineering: Environmental Emphasis Course Requirements

Civil Engineering: Environmental Emphasis Major

The Environmental Emphasis Option in Civil Engineering is designed
to produce graduates who are prepared for professional, technical
and scientific, engineering work in environmental clean-up, restoration,
protection, and preservation. The environmental option in civil
engineering is designed to meet accreditation criteria specified by the
Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET). As
a result, Carroll graduates with a major in Civil Engineering – Environmental
Emphasis will be eligible to take the two Professional
Engineering licensure exams and thereby earn a Professional Engineer
license. The civil engineering program is accredited by the Engineering
Accreditation Commission of the Accreditation Board of Engineering
& Technology, 111 Market Place, Suite 1050, Baltimore, MD 21202-
4012. Telephone: 410-347-7700.

The Civil Engineering: Environmental Emphasis Program has adopted
the philosophy and goals of the department. The four major areas of
study with the Program are: structures, environmental, water resources,
and transportation.
