Civil Engineering Technology
(AAS.CET) Associate in Applied Science Degree
This program prepares students with skills necessary for employment as a civil
engineering technician with consulting engineering firms, testing laboratories, utilities
and local, state and federal government agencies. Emphasis is placed on such tasks as
surveying, materials testing, drafting, construction inspection, etc., associated with
civil engineering. There is a strong demand for civil technicians; thus, employment
opportunities are good. Civil Engineering Technology provides a balance between
outdoor and indoor work which many find desirable. Surveying, field testing,
construction supervision and testing are essentially outdoor work while drafting,
design and laboratory testing are indoor work.
