The CEE pursues excellentteaching by providing quality education that will enable itsgraduates to demonstrate their technical proficiency, theirCollege of Engineering and Computing 443ability to communicate effectively, their responsiblecitizenship, their lifelong learning, and their ethicalbehavior in their career and professional practice. TheCEE also encourages activities that enrich the studentpotential for career and professional achievement andleadership. The CEE is committed to providing graduateswho improve the quality of life, meet the needs of industryand government, and contribute to the economiccompetitiveness of Florida and the nation. The CEEstrives to attain a level of research and scholarlyproductivity befitting a major research university andwarranting national and international recognition forexcellence.Bachelor of Science in Civil EngineeringProgram Educational ObjectivesThe Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering ofFlorida International University offers the Program in CivilEngineering with three main objectives that broadlydescribe the professional and career accomplishmentsthat our graduates are prepared to achieve. These threeobjectives are:Objective 1:Graduates will advance their careers in civil engineering orrelated areas by demonstrating technical proficiency,communication skills, responsible citizenship, leadership,and ethical behavior.Objective 2:Graduates will make progress towards obtainingprofessional registration, special licensing, or certification.Objective 3:Graduates will pursue continued life-long learning tobecome the problem solvers considering the global,economic, environmental, and social impact.Common Prerequisite Courses andEquivalenciesFIU Course(s)CHM 1045, CHM 1045LEquivalent Course(s)CHMX045/X045L orCHMX045CCHSX440/CHSX440LMAC 2281MACX311 or MACX281MAC 2282MACX312 or MACX282MAC 2283MACX313 or MACX283MAP 2302MAPX302 or MAPX305PHY 2048, PHY 2048LPHYX048/PHYX048L orPHYX048C orPHYX041/PHYX048L orPHYX043/PHYX048LPHY 2049PHYX049/PHYX049L¹ orPHYX049C, orPHYX042/PHYX049Lor PHYX044/PHYX049L¹PHYX049L does not count toward the degree at FIU.Courses which form part of the statewide articulationbetween the State University System and the FloridaCollege System will fulfill the Lower Division CommonPrerequisites.Please visit https://cpm.flvc.org for a current list ofstate-approved common prerequisites.Common Prerequisites

These needsrelate to shelter, mobility, water, air and development ofland and physical facilities.The academic program is designed to meet the Stateof Florida’s articulation policy as well as to satisfy criteriaoutlined by the Accreditation Board for Engineering andTechnology (ABET), among others.Lower Division PreparationStudents admitted to the university are admitted directly totheir chosen major. Students are expected to make goodprogress based on critical indicators, such as GPA inspecific courses or credits earned. In cases wherestudents are not making good progress, a change of majormay be required. Advisors work to redirect students tomore appropriate majors when critical indicators are notmet.Lower division preparation includes completion of preengineering courses which include Engineering Drawingwith CAD application, Calculus I, II, & III, DifferentialEquations, Chemistry I & II and Labs, Physics I withCalculus and Lab, Physics II with Calculus, and PhysicalGeology and Lab, all with a grade of ‘C’ or better. See theexample semester by semester program in the followingpages.Effective pursuit of engineering studies requires carefulattention to both the sequence and the type of coursestaken. It is therefore important, and the college requires,that each student plan a curriculum with the departmentalfaculty advisor.All students must comply with the University CoreCurriculum Requirements for the University for SocialScience, Humanities, Arts and English. The departmentrequires a minimum of 15 semester hours in the area ofHumanities, Arts and Social Science. All transfer studentsshould refer to the Undergraduate Education section ofthis catalog to determine if they have met therequirements for Humanities, Social Science, Arts, andEnglish at their previous institution.Undergraduate Catalog 2020-2021A minimum grade of ‘C’ is required in all writing,physics, chemistry, and mathematics courses.A minimum grade of ‘C’ is required of all CivilEngineering courses and prerequisite courses.Students who have been dismissed for the first timefrom the University due to low grades may appeal to theDean for reinstatement. A second dismissal will result inno possibility of reinstatement.Other RequirementsStudents must have a minimum 2.0 GPA, must completeall required classes, and must otherwise meet all of thestate and university requirements in order to graduate.Students who enter the university with fewer than 60transferred credits must take 9 summer credits. Refer tothe appropriate sections in the Catalog’s for moreinformation.Courses are to be taken in the proper sequence. Anycourse taken without the required prerequisites andcorequisites will be dropped automatically before the endof the term, resulting in a ‘DR’ or ‘DF’.Upper Division Course ObjectivesThe program of study encourages the development of abroadly educated civil engineering graduate, who cansucceed as a productive engineer with continuedprofessional growth. The courses listed as requirementsfor the BS degree not only provide the students withmathematical and scientific knowledge, but also includeother essential areas necessary for a successfulengineering career. The courses have been designed toincrease student competence in written and oralcommunication skills as well as to develop critical thinkingand creative problem solving strategies. Course projectsare designed to teach engineering science fundamentalsand their applications while providing enrichingopportunities for laboratory and computer-basedexperiences. Furthermore, students are supplied with anunderstanding of the economic, social, ethical andprofessional responsibilities of engineers in our societyand are encouraged to include sustainable development inall project designs.Foreign Language RequirementStudents must meet the University Foreign LanguageRequirement.

Undergraduate Catalog 2020-2021Combined BS/MS in Civil EngineeringDegree PathwayStudents who pursue a BS degree in Civil Engineeringand have completed 75 credits and have at least a 3.3GPA on both overall and upper division courses may applyto enroll in the combined BS/MS pathway in CivilEngineering upon recommendation from three CEE facultymembers. In addition to the admission requirements of thecombined BS/MS pathway, students must meet all theadmission requirements of both the department and theUniversity Graduate School. Students need only applyonce to the combined degree pathway; the application issubmitted to Graduate Admissions typically before thestudent starts the last 30 credits of the bachelor’s degreeprogram. A student admitted to the combined degreepathway will be considered to have undergraduate statusuntil the student applies for graduation from theirbachelor’s degree program. Upon conferral of thebachelor’s degree, the student will be granted graduatestatus and be eligible for graduate assistantships.Students enrolled in the pathway may count up to ninecredit hours of CEE graduate courses as credits for boththe BS and MS degrees. The combined BS/MS pathwayhas been designed to be a continuous enrollmentpathway. However, upon completion of all therequirements of the undergraduate program, students willreceive their BS degrees. Students in this pathway haveup to one year to complete the master’s degree afterreceipt of the bachelor’s degree. Students who fail to meetthis one year post BS requirement or who elect to leavethe combined pathway at any time and earn only the BSdegree will have the same access requirements to regulargraduate programs as any other student, but will not beable to use the nine credits in both the bachelor’s andmaster’s degrees.For each of the graduate courses counted as credits forboth BS and MS degree, a minimum grade of B isrequired. All double counted courses must be at 5000level or higher. Students enrolled in the pathway maycount up to nine credit hours of CEE graduate coursestoward the elective engineering BS requirements as wellas toward the MS degree. Only graduate courses withformal lectures can be counted for both degrees. Thestudents are responsible for confirming the eligibility ofeach course with the Undergraduate Advisor.Students interested in the pathway should consult withthe Undergraduate Advisor on their eligibility for thepathway. The students should also meet the Grad
