Beschreibung des Programms

The University of New Haven’s master’s degree program in civil engineering is uniquely designed for individuals with a keen interest in civil, environmental, and construction engineering and sustainability who want to improve their core competencies in analysis and design, areas that are critical for multifaceted civil engineering projects of the future.

Innovative focus areas

Students will choose courses from four innovative focus areas:

  • Construction Management
  • Environmental Engineering
  • Structural Engineering
  • Sustainability
A future of opportunity

Civil engineering positions account for the most jobs of any engineering field, and this job growth is predicted to continue. In Connecticut alone, job openings for civil and environmental engineers are expected to grow by 13.8 percent through 2022, which is higher than the aggregate rate of growth for all occupations in the state.

Federal funding for sustainable and “green” development has also led to an increase in environmentally-friendly infrastructure projects, which has driven demand for civil and environmental engineers.

Our graduates will be prepared to work for Departments of Transportation, the Federal Highway Administration, the EPA, or consulting and engineering firms as a:

  • Civil engineer
  • Environmental engineer
  • Project leader
  • Structural engineer
  • Research consultant
  • City engineer
  • Design engineer
  • Water engineer
  • Green building professional
  • Urban planner
Career Placement for Graduates

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, employment of civil engineers is projected to grow 8 percent from 2014 to 2024. As infrastructure continues to age, civil engineers will be needed to manage projects to rebuild bridges, repair roads, and upgrade levees and dams as well as airports and buildings.

Current Areas of Student Research
  • Sustainability
  • Engineering Mechanics
  • Structural Engineering
  • Water Resources

Informationen über das Institut

The University of New Haven, founded on the Yale campus in 1920, is a private, coeducational university that has been recognized by The Princeton Review and U.S. News & World Report for academic excellence. Located between New York City and Boston in the shoreline city of West Haven, the University is a diverse and vibrant community of more than 7,500 students from across the globe.

Over the past 15 years, under the leadership of President Steven H. Kaplan, the University has experienced significant growth — both in enrollment and in the expansion of the University’s West Haven campus. Full-time undergraduate enrollment has more than doubled, and first-year applications have nearly tripled. In the last decade, the University has completed more than $300 million in major capital projects while launching 26 new academic programs. The University has also added campuses in Prato, Italy, and Orange, Conn.
