Civil Engineering (ENGV)
Resident Prerequisite: ENGR 110
This course provides students to an introduction to computer aided graphics, drafting and design, and how it is applied in civil engineering.
Offered: Resident and Online
Prerequisite: ENGV 205
This course provides students to an introduction to surveying, with an emphasis on the identification and minimization of errors found in surveying work. Surveying represents the art, science and technology of determining the relative positions of points above, on, or beneath the Earth's surface. The student will learn how to measure distances, angles, areas, horizontal and vertical curves, and volumes.

Prerequisite: ENGV 225 and ENGV 390 (may be taken concurrently) and ENGV 395 (may be taken concurrently)
This course is the first of a two-course sequence that presents the civil engineering student to various types of laboratory work that comprise the civil engineering profession. This course will provide students the opportunity to conduct surveying field work, and perform laboratory work to assess material properties and strengths of several civil engineering materials (e.g., soils, steel). Students will perform laboratory work in teams and prepare written reports of their results.
Offered: Resident and Online
Prerequisite: ENGR 330
This course provides the students’ third exposure to structural analysis. Following strength of materials, this course presents basic concepts in structural analysis: loads and analysis (including deflection) of statically determinate structures (trusses, beams, and frames) and indeterminate structures (using slope-deflection and moment-distribution methods).
Offered: Resident and Online
Prerequisite: ENGR 330
This course provides the students' initial and foundation course in geotechnical engineering. Following strength of materials, this course presents basic concepts in geology, soil properties and classification, compaction, permeability, seepage, stresses and shear strength, lateral earth pressures, slope stability, and bearing capacity. The course also introduces subsoil exploration and geosynthetics.
