Civil Engineering (B.S.)/Transportation Engineering (M.ENG.)
Illinois Tech鈥檚 Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering/Master of Engineering in Transportation Engineering accelerated master's degree program allows students the opportunity to pursue advanced studies and complete both degrees in five years.
Our undergraduate civil engineering program provides breadth in core sub-disciplines (including structures, transportation, and construction management) and depth in at least one area of specialization (at the discretion of the student and academic adviser). The graduate program in transportation engineering provides students with analytical, problem-solving, and management skills to excel within the field.
This program will prepare students to become qualified transportation planners, traffic engineers, and traffic safety engineers. In addition, students will be able to understand and evaluate socioeconomic impacts of transportation and infrastructure engineering projects.
Program Overview
Our combined program will prepare students to become qualified transportation planners, traffic engineers, and traffic safety engineers with the skills to succeed. In addition, students will be able to understand and evaluate socioeconomic impacts of transportation and infrastructure engineering projects.
