- Graduates will have the confidence for self education and the ability for lifelong learning. They will have a broad education to understand the impact of engineering on society and demonstrate awareness of contemporary issues
Civil engineers design, construct, manage, and improve the built environment that is all around us. They are involved in all aspects of what makes a community work: the roads, the public transit systems, the freight transit systems, the buildings, the drinking water system, and the waste water/storm water system. They naturally get involved with city or organization planning. IPFW offers state of-the-art knowledge in all areas of civil engineering such as structures, transportation, geotechnical, construction management, and environmental engineering.
