Master of Science [M.S] [Civil and Environmental Engineering] From University of Massachusetts

Each program area provides focused study at the graduate level, though there is a high degree of exchange and cooperation among the disciplines. Faculty research interests include: pharmaceutical contaminants in drinking water, climate risk management, earthquake engineering, green building technologies, intelligent transportation systems, transportation systems modeling, transportation safety, and sustainable water resources planning and management. We are renowned for interdisciplinary scientific research, including collaborations with the departments of Architecture, Electrical and Computer Engineering, Geosciences, Mechanical and Industrial Engineering, Microbiology, School of Management, and the School of Public Health.

Master's degree students concentrate in one of four program areas: Environmental and Water Resources, Geotechnical, Structural Engineering and Mechanics, and Transportation. The masters program prepares students for careers in industry, government, consulting, or for further study at the doctoral level.
