Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering (BSCE)

Duquesne University

The Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering (BSCE) is designed to prepare you for a successful career in the design, construction, and maintenance of essential infrastructure. Through a curriculum that emphasizes hands-on, project-based learning, you’ll develop the practical skills needed for professional practice. With access to advanced resources like a computer-aided design lab and a structures lab, you’ll gain the experience that will launch your career and empower you to shape the future of our built environment. Environmental Engineering Concentration: The BSCE with an Environmental Engineering concentration equips you with the skills to understand complex environmental issues and design effective systems to reduce or mitigate pollution. By combining the principles of civil and chemical engineering, this field prepares you to address critical challenges where human activity intersects with the environment. As an environmental engineer, you’ll design water treatment systems, manage solid and hazardous waste, develop air pollution solutions, and create sustainable waste-to-value projects. You’ll also have the opportunity to oversee environmental regulations and innovate proactive approaches to prevent future issues.
