Students can focus their work in seven different areas of civil engineering and make use of specialized facilities to complete their work. Each area of specialization has different requirements for the each degree program, including the unique Master of Engineering program which is a non-thesis degree. Area of specialization: Coastal and Ocean Engineering: The graduate program in coastal and ocean engineering at Oregon State University emphasizes the interdisciplinary nature of research and education on emerging themes related to coastal climate change including sea level rise and coastal storms, natural coastal hazards including tsunamis and hurricanes, marine renewable energy, and coastal ecology and sustainable communities. Construction Engineering Management: Construction engineering management (CEM) is the application of scientific and technical knowledge to the processes used to construct infrastructure projects. Graduate studies in CEM at OSU emphasize construction engineering and management concepts and techniques and their broader application to the Architecture/Engineering/Construction (AEC) industry. Engineering Education: Graduate study in Civil and Construction Engineering Education at Oregon State University integrates fundamentals of civil and construction engineering with the learning sciences. Students gain exposure to the latest in how people learn in academic and professional settings. Geomatics Civil Engineering: Graduate study in Civil Engineering Geomatics at Oregon State University integrates fundamental spatial data and boundary law theoretical knowledge with practical applications. Students gain exposure to the latest in geomatics technologies and boundary theory. Geotechnical Civil Engineering: Graduate study in geotechnical engineering at Oregon State University emphasizes the integration of the principles of soil mechanics and the art of foundation and earth structure engineering. Infrastructure Materials: Graduate study in the Infrastructure Materials focus area at Oregon State University emphasizes the fundamental understanding of materials and property relationships, micro structural development and its impact on long-term performance, durability and sustainability of civil and construction engineering materials, principles of green construction and materials selection as well as rehabilitation, assessment and repair of infrastructure with a focus on materials aspects. Structural Civil Engineering: The Master of Science, Master of Engineering and Doctor of Philosophy degrees are offered in the area of structural engineering and structural mechanics. Prerequisites for graduate study are a B.S. degree in engineering or a related area and basic courses in structural analysis and design. Transportation Engineering: Transportation serves society’s basic needs for personal travel and transfer of goods. Transportation engineering applies scientific and technical knowledge to provide economical and efficient transportation service that meets societal needs while maintaining compatibility with environmental, energy, and safety goals. Water Resources Civil Engineering: The graduate program in Water Resources Engineering at Oregon State University emphasizes interdisciplinary research and education on emerging themes related to environmental hydraulics hazards (e.g., floods, explosive air-water geyser flows, etc.), hydro informatics, water resources systems analysis, watershed hydrology, flood management, green storm water infrastructure, water sustainability, and adaptation planning.
