Degree Requirements

The master’s programs in civil engineering require completing 30 or 33 credit hours, depending on the option chosen. The 30-credit option leads to a Master of Science in Civil Engineering, and it includes a three-credit graduate project or six-credit thesis project. The 33-credit option leads to a Master of Civil Engineering, and is based entirely on course work. In line with Lawrence Tech’s “theory and practice” approach, both degree programs emphasize practical training and the development of theoretical concepts through classroom experiences and applied research projects. Students have access to industry-standard software packages and advanced experimental testing facilities and are encouraged to interact with practitioners in the field. All faculty have industry and research experience.
