Master of Science in Civil Engineering

In the Master of Science in Civil Engineering program in the College of Engineering at Temple University, you will master the skills needed to build and maintain the infrastructure of the modern world—including airports, bridges, canals, dams, highways, roads, and tunnels—and also develop the geotechnical and structural analyzation skills required for responsible engineering.

In addition to building on your existing technical and practical skills, you’ll become a more articulate, socially aware contributor to the civil engineering profession. Learn to unpack and critically evaluate key challenges and issues facing society’s infrastructure and formulate intelligent engineering solutions.

Dean's Message

It is with tremendous pride that I serve as Dean of the College of Engineering during this time of continued growth and opportunity for the College and our students.

Along with rising in rankings, the College is building on our reputation of providing a great education through collaborative faculty research, experiential learning, our growing alumni network, and innovative Senior Design projects. From miniature medical device technologies to blasting off into the ionosphere or taking care of our own planet here at home, Temple engineers truly are the architects of the future.

Remarkable things go on every day in and around our building on Norris Street. The world outside will always demand more engineers, and we will continue to ensure that our Owls can not only step into that world but lead it.

I look forward to continuing to serve and strengthen this College as we continue on our trajectory of great accomplishments. We hope you will join us.
