The purpose of this program is to broaden the students’ master of science program in the water resource area in civil engineering.
Plan A Thesis Requirement
Only students with a M.S. Plan A thesis option are eligible. The student’s graduate committee will include at least one member of the Water Resources Curriculum Committee.
Coursework and Thesis
Each student must complete a minimum of 28 hours of graduate level coursework and a thesis under Plan A (4 credit hours) to qualify for the master of science in civil engineering/ water resources.
The student must obtain at least 18 credit hours of graduate level coursework in engineering, emphasizing a concentration of core courses in a particular area of emphasis in civil engineering. The core course areas of emphasis for this program are hydrologic and hydraulic engineering. The particular set of courses for a given area of emphasis will be designated by the faculty in the water resources area for these areas of emphasis with the approval of the Civil Engineering Graduate Committee.
