Civil Engineering ABET Accreditation

Department of Civil and Construction Engineering and Management

Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering

Accreditation

The Civil Engineering Program is accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET, under the commission's General Criteria and Program Criteria for Civil and Similarly Named Engineering Programs.

Program Educational Objectives

The educational objectives of the Civil Engineering program at The University of Texas at Tyler are to produce:

  1. Graduates demonstrate the knowledge, skills, and attitudes necessary to become engineering leaders and assume responsibility for: multidisciplinary engineering design, project construction and asset management, ethical decision-making in professional practice.
  2. Graduates continue to grow intellectually and professionally through: participation in professional society activities, continuing engineering education, graduate studies and/or self-study during their professional career.
  3. Graduates demonstrate effective communication skills, including: oral, written, graphical communication to meet increasing professional demands.
  4. Graduates become licensed professional engineers.


Student Outcomes

By the time of graduation, civil engineering students should be able to:

  1. identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, and mathematics;
  2. apply engineering design to produce solutions that meet specified needs with consideration of public health, safety, and welfare, as well as global, cultural, social, environmental, and economic factors;
  3. communicate effectively with a range of audiences;
  4. recognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations and make informed judgments, which must consider the impact of engineering solutions in global, economic, environmental, and societal contexts;
  5. to function effectively on a team whose members together provide leadership, create a collaborative and inclusive environment, establish goals, plan tasks, and meet objectives;
  6. to develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data, and use engineering judgment to draw conclusions; and
  7. acquire and apply new knowledge as needed, using appropriate learning strategies.
