The Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering programs at UCLA include civil engineering materials, environmental engineering, geotechnical engineering, structural/earthquake engineering and mechanics, transportation engineering, and water resources and coastal engineering.
The undergraduate curriculum leads to a Bachelor of Science (BS) in Civil Engineering, a broad-based education in civil engineering materials, environmental engineering, geotechnical engineering, structural/earthquake engineering and mechanics, transportation engineering, and water resources and coastal engineering. This program is an excellent foundation for entry into professional practice in civil engineering or for more advanced study. The department also offers the undergraduate Environmental Engineering minor.
At the graduate level, Master of Science (MS) and Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) degree programs are offered in the areas of civil engineering materials, environmental engineering, geotechnical engineering, structural and civil engineering materials, structural/earthquake engineering and mechanics, transportation engineering, and water resources and coastal engineering. In these areas, research is being done on a variety of problems ranging from basic physics and mechanics problems to critical problems in earthquake engineering and in the development of new technologies for pollution control and water distribution and treatment.
