Institutional and General Education
To complete the General Education requirements,

Requirements section of this catalog. Civil Engineering
Technology (CET) students take 11 of the 35 credit
hours of the general education requirements under the
required math and physical science courses.
Therefore, the CET majors are expected to take 24
credit hours to complete the skills and knowledge
components of the general education requirements.
The skills and knowledge components include (a)
Written Communication (6 credit hours), (b) Humanities
and Speech Communication (9 credit hours), and
(c) History and Social Sciences (9 credit hours).
Please refer to the undergraduate General Education

Co-curricular Activities
The faculty supports and encourages the involvement
of engineering technology majors in at least one
technical organization specific to each discipline and
actively encourages student participation in such
organizations.
Outcomes Assessment Activities
• To be eligible for graduation, all civil engineering
technology majors are required to take an exit
examination. The results of the exit examination
will be used in the evaluation of the program. Test
results will have no effect on student’s GPA.
• Graduates and their employers will be surveyed
as to program satisfaction and job performance
following their graduation.
