Civil Engineering: Big opportunities in a small setting

Trine University’s oldest engineering discipline, dating to 1902, the Bachelor of Science in civil engineering program provides BIG university opportunities in a small, student-friendly environment. Like big state schools, each of the five major civil engineering disciplines — structural engineering, geotechnical engineering, transportation engineering, environmental engineering, and water resources engineering — are represented well within Trine’s curriculum and faculty.

The experience: Personal attention, hands-on learning

As part of the Bachelor of Science in civil engineering program at Trine, you will experience:

• Small, interactive classes, typically with 10-30 students
• Active learning strategies
• Faculty with open-door policies who know your name
• Ten courses with integrated laboratories
• Engineering site visits
• Design projects in upper-level civil engineering courses
• A capstone senior design project

Additional hands-on development opportunities available to all civil engineering students include:

• Regional and national design competitions
• American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) student group, recently named among the top in the nation
• Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) student group
• Engineers Without Borders (EWB) student group
• Engineering internships
• Cooperative work experience
• Undergraduate research

It’s easy to talk about excellence . But it’s another thing altogether to truly commit yourself to it each and every day. To live it. To inspire it in everything around you. At Trine University, this commitment to excellence has formed the bedrock of our experience for well over a century. You’ll see it, and you’ll feel it, the second you step on our beautiful, 450-acre campus in Angola, Indiana. Few schools can say they’ve been getting it done at such a high level for nearly 130 years. We can.

A Commitment to Excellence

From our programs to our faculty, to our facilities, to the positive impact our work has on communities everywhere, we set our standards at Trine just a little higher. We can’t help it. It’s who we are. It’s why U.S. News & World Report and the Princeton Review consistently rank us among the Midwest’s best universities, and it’s why more than 1,900 companies around the world seek out our graduates.

An Innovative Spirit

Innovation is in our DNA at Trine. It always has been. In fact, the modern-day golf ball was patented by a Trine graduate. Our students enjoy an active and engaging learning experience, winning national awards for the hands-on work they accomplish. We’ve invested more than $8 million in the Division of Innovation and Technology. And we recently unveiled a new, high-tech Project Based Learning Center for Excellence.
