Program Description:
The planning, analysis, and design of structural facilities pose some of the most interesting and challenging problems encountered by the engineering profession. To prepare engineers to address these problems, the department offers a graduate specialty for students interested in structural engineering.

The primary objectives of this graduate specialty are to provide students a greater understanding of the behavior of structures and their constituent materials, to establish a confident attitude in approaching new structural design problems, and to provide opportunities for cutting-edge research.

Coursework focuses on the primary areas of structural analysis, behavior, and design. Related coursework is also available through the Architectural, Mechanical, Aerospace, and engineering curriculum.
