Interdisciplinary Graduate Minor in Computational Science (IGMCS)

The Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering participates in the interdisciplinary graduate minor in computational science (IGMCS) program. Any student pursuing a MS or PhD with a major in civil engineering or an MS with a major in environmental engineering can receive a minor in computational science by completing the appropriate IGMCS requirements. For additional information, see the description of the Interdisciplinary Graduate Minor in Computational Science  listed under Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science or visit the IGMCS website. The Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering also contributes courses to the IGMCS program curriculum.

Environmental Policy Minor

The department participates in a program designed to give graduate students an opportunity to develop an interdisciplinary specialization in environmental policy. See Environmental Policy Minor   for program description.
