Bachelor of Science [B.S] [Civil Engineering Technology] From Colorado State University

The major is designed to produce civil engineering technologists who are capable of performing engineering surveys, can perform standard analysis and design of elements of structures, water systems, and transportation systems,? are capable of conducting standard laboratory and field tests for construction materials and soils, and? are competent to function as construction project managers.

Engineering professionals are problem-solver people who make things work better, more efficiently, quicker and less expensively. They use skills and dedication to search for better ways to solve problems.?

The major in civil engineering technology leads to a bachelor of science degree in civil engineering technology (BSCET). The four year program is structured to provide the student with a mix of theory in the classroom and practical applications in laboratories.

The goal of the CET program at Colorado State University-Pueblo is to produce competent graduates who will have received a quality general education to help them sustain life-long professional success. The CET program places emphasis on hands-on experience obtained through laboratory activities and field work. Specifically, the CET curriculum is designed to produce civil engineering technologists who can (a) perform engineering surveys, (b) analyze and design of elements of structures, water systems, and transportation systems, (c) conduct standard laboratory and field tests for construction materials, and (d) function as construction project managers .

Upon graduation, students will have the knowledge and skills that make them immediate assets to employers. The CET graduate can expect to fill positions in industry that require problem solving skills, team work, and communications in addition to the application of their technical skills.
