Civil engineers are responsible for planning, design, construction, and operation of public and private facilities essential to modern life; including infrastructure for transportation of people and goods, water supply and water treatment, waste disposal, communications, and energy. Civil engineers are problem solvers, meeting societal challenges pertaining to infrastructure, the environment, drinking water supply, energy, resilience, national security, traffic congestion, smart cities, urban redevelopment, and sustainable community planning.

The Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering offers a Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering (BSCIE). The undergraduate program at the University of Missouri provides students with the requisite fundamentals and prepares them for beginning practice in the traditional and emerging fields of Civil Engineering. The degree program has a flexible credit structure that provides the fundamentals of engineering, in addition to a thorough coverage of the major specialties within Civil Engineering. In addition, technical electives allow concentration in selected areas (environmental, water resources, structural, geotechnical, and transportation). Most graduates take the Fundamentals of Engineering Exam and are encouraged to become registered professional engineers and to continue their education throughout their careers.
Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering (BS CiE) requires students to earn a C- or better in the Civil Engineering core classes (CV_ENG 3010, CV_ENG 3100, CV_ENG 3200, CV_ENG 3300, CV_ENG 3312/CV_ENG 3313 (C- only required in class that serves as core requirement), CV_ENG 3400, CV_ENG 3600, CV_ENG 3700, CV_ENG 3702, CV_ENG 4980).
Departmental Honors
The CEE Honors Program follows the general rules and philosophy of the College of Engineering Honors Program. Students may enter the program from the beginning of the junior year and must have a GPA of 3.0/4.0 at the start. Eligible students participate in the program by enrolling in CV_ENG 4995 Undergraduate Honors Research in Civil Engineering for one to three credit hours, which replaces an equivalent number of hours of CEE technical electives.
The heart of the program is a research or advanced design project culminating in an undergraduate honors thesis. The project is conducted under the supervision of the honors advisor, who is an CEE faculty member selected by mutual agreement between the student and the professor. Satisfactory completion of the project requires approval (signatures) of the honors thesis by both the honors advisor and an additional faculty member, who serves as second reader of the thesis. Students who complete the program and graduate with a GPA of a least 3.0 receive the designation “Honors Scholar in Engineering” at graduation and on their diploma.
Another valuable feature of the Honors Program is that participants may reduce the number of credit hours required for degree completion to the University minimum of 120 by substituting up to six hours of credit from graduate courses through dual (undergraduate/graduate) enrollment during the last four semesters of the undergraduate program and after completion of the honors project.
Educational Mission
The educational objectives of the Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering describe the expected accomplishments of graduates after graduation. It is expected that nearly all students completing the requirements of the Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering will engage in the life-long learning necessary to advance professionally in the field of civil engineering and contribute to society and the profession through involvement in professional or other service activities.
It is expected that most graduates will

- Take and pass the Professional Engineers Exam, and
- Be licensed to practice engineering in one or more states
It is expected that some graduates will
- Begin careers in civil engineering-related industries, especially construction and other careers not requiring professional licensure
- Begin and complete graduate study in civil engineering at MU or other Carnegie doctoral extensive universities, and
- Begin and complete graduate/professional study in other associated fields
The following list of outcomes describes what graduates are expected to know and to be able to do when they complete the program. At graduation, graduates will have:
