The Construction Engineering Bachelors Degree at the University of Nebraska at Omaha is designed for individuals aiming to meet the construction industry's need for licensed professional engineers. You will integrate engineering, construction, and management principles to tackle real-world construction challenges, focusing on areas like civil engineering, structural principles, material testing, project management, and computer-assisted design. This undergraduate program provides a strong foundation in engineering and technical coursework, preparing you for licensure as a professional engineer and a career in the architecture-engineering-construction industry.
This full-time, on-campus program is studied over four years, guiding you through a curriculum that includes fundamental engineering courses, construction communications, building information modeling, and structural analysis. You will engage with subjects such as engineering economics, materials of construction, and probability and statistics, culminating in a capstone project. You will graduate with the expertise to manage project delivery, ensuring constructability and operational capability, and be prepared for roles in project management, design, and engineering across local, national, and international construction projects.
