Master
of Science Degree Program
Program
Background
The faculty of Environmental
Engineering at Washington State University
Tri-Cities is dedicated
to providing quality education and service to the Columbia Basin
region. The faculty is also engaged in cutting
edge research of different aspects of Environmental Engineering.
We are pleased to announce that the
Civil Engineering program has been extended to our community, with the availability of junior-level courses at WSU Tri-Cities. For more information visit www.ce.wsu.edu
Currently,
the program offers the Master's of Science degree in Environmental
Engineering. A student can fulfill program requirements
in three different ways:
Thesis Option: 21 credit hours of graded
course work, two hours of graded seminar & seven hours of thesis.
Project Option:
24 credit hours of graded course work, two hours of graded seminar
and four hours of project.
Course Option: 27 credit hours of graded
course work, two hours of graded seminar and one hour of final examination.
Up to nine credit hours can be taken from other disciplines of
the student's choice.
Admission Requirements
Bachelor's degree in Civil
Engineering with a minimum GPA of 3.00 in the last 60 graded semester
credit.
Students with a GPA of 2.80
and higher but less than 3.00 may be granted provisional admission.
Students with a GPA of less
than 2.80 may apply for admission after completing CE 515, CE 541,
and CE 547 with a GPA of 3.40.
Students with undergraduate
degrees in related areas of science and engineering may also be
