BS in Construction Engineering Technology

The construction engineering technology program combines civil engineering and construction management curriculums. We offer unique courses that distinguish us from our competitors. Courses are grounded in practical applications, rather than theory. Every class has a laboratory component or project that tackles a real-world problem.
