CMU/Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder BS in Civil Engineering
Civil engineers are analytical thinkers who help design our built environment, including roads, bridges, tunnels, skyscrapers, transit systems, water treatment facilities and offshore structures. Our students become problem-solvers who meet many challenges facing society and communities, including: pollution, clean drinking water, climate change, energy and transportation needs, urban development, and community planning. The first two years of the program are taught by CMU faculty, and the second two years of engineering courses are taught by Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder faculty who live permanently in Grand Junction.
- Gain a hands-on education
- Learn to identify and solve complex engineering problems
- Earn a Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder undergraduate degree entirely in Grand Junction
Academic Plan & Requirements
Students interested in the partnership program should apply for admission to CMU directly as a first-year or transfer student. After about two years at CMU, students then apply to Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder through an expedited admissions process.
Our objectives for students in the partnership program include:
- Successful employment in engineering, science or technology
- Work in management or leadership roles
- Pursuit of advanced degrees or additional educational opportunities
- Pursuit of professional registration or certifications
- Engagement in activities that benefit society
The CMU partnership follows a similar hands-on curriculum to Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder. Students complete a yearlong senior design project their final year.
