What degrees are offered in the Water Engineering Program?
We offer MS, ME and PhD degrees in Civil and Environmental Engineering with specialization in Hydrology, Water Resources and Hydraulics. Once you are formally admitted to the Water Engineering program without a prior MS degree, you will be enrolling in the MS or ME degree. ME is a course work only degree and requires a total of 30 credits. The MS degree is offered as Plan A or Plan B. In the Plan A option, the student is required to complete 30 credit hours, of which 6-9 hours should be on thesis work. A student who is interested in continuing to a PhD degree at a later time is encouraged to follow the Plan A option. The Plan B option requires 30 credit hours, of which 3-6 credits should be devoted to a project report.
