Master of Science in Civil Engineering

University of Central Florida

The Master of Science in Civil Engineering degree program at UCF reflects the very broad nature of the field, which encompasses the design, construction and enhancement of the infrastructure of society. It provides an opportunity to advance your knowledge and specialize in one of four subdisciplines, including structural and geotechnical engineering, transportation systems engineering, water resources engineering and smart cities. Plus, civil engineering tracks are available fully online, offering the flexibility and convenience for you to balance work, school and life. Civil engineering graduates often find positions in consulting firms, construction and construction-related industries, government agencies and academic institutions. Additionally, this program prepares you for professional licensure and certification opportunities to help further your career. Both thesis and nonthesis options are available. Smart Cities Track The Smart Cities track is the first of its kind offered in the nation. Choose this track to explore the areas of smart transportation, smart and resilient infrastructure, and smart and technological advancements in environmental engineering and water resources. Structural and Geotechnical Engineering Track The Structural and Geotechnical Engineering track focuses on the engineering, analysis, design and construction of built infrastructure. The track emphasizes above-ground engineering and below-ground engineering, as well as the interaction between the two systems. Transportation Systems Engineering Track The Transportation Systems Engineering track focuses on transportation planning and operations, traffic engineering and construction engineering. Water Resources Engineering Track The Water Resources Engineering track focuses on water resources modeling, hydraulics and hydrology.
