Undergraduate Program
The B.S. Degree is founded upon a strong background in mathematics, physical and geological sciences, and engineering fundamentals; as well as economics and the humanities and social sciences - a background that will support changing career requirements and objectives and the pursuit of lifelong learning.
During their sophomore through senior years, all students are introduced to four fundamental areas of Geological engineering where they integrate engineering fundamentals with geological science knowledge to define and solve geological engineering problems, and embark upon geological engineering design projects of limited scope.
Finally, teams of senior students undertake major geological engineering design projects, where their cumulative knowledge of engineering fundamentals, geological science, geological engineering topics, computer applications, engineering economics, communications and other subjects is brought to bear upon "real world" problems.
