Student Outcomes
Faculty members use the program educational outcomes to develop the topics covered and assignments in each course. By the time of graduation, civil engineering students will demonstrate competence in:
a. ability to apply knowledge of mathematics, science and engineering;
b. ability to design and conduct experiments, as well as to analyze and interpret data;
c. ability to design a system, component, or process to meet desired needs within realistic constraints such as economic, environmental, social, political, ethical, health and safety, manufacturability and sustainability;
d. ability to function on multidisciplinary teams;
e. ability to identify, formulate and solve engineering problems;
f. ability to understand professional and ethical responsibility;
g. ability to communicate effectively;
h. ability to attain broad education necessary to understand the impact of engineering solutions in a global, economic, environmental and societal context;
i. ability to recognize the need for and engagement in life-long learning;
j. ability to gain knowledge of contemporary issues;
k. ability to use techniques, skills, and modern engineering tools necessary for engineering practice.
Admission Requirements for Pre-Engineering and Civil Engineering
All civil engineering students must meet WTAMU admission standards as outline in this catalog. Upon admission to the University, all students would be eligible to engage in and complete the first two years of the Engineering Program. In the semester during which the student would complete the pre-engineering sequence (cited below), the student may petition for admittance into the Civil Engineering Program. Every student enrolled in civil engineering courses must first be admitted into the Civil Engineering Program or receive special permission from the department head.
