Gonzaga's Civil Engineering combines technical excellence, experiential learning, and the Jesuit 'care of the whole person' to give you the tools and knowledge to serve civilization.
Gonzaga's Civil Engineering program is small enough to develop strong academic relationships between students and faculty. Faculty are not only active in research, they are industry practitioners bringing a wealth of experience into the classroom.
Technical electives provide a deeper experience with a specialty field (subdisciplines) such as environmental engineering or structural engineering.
The Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering degree program is accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET, , under the General Program Criteria and the Civil and Similarly Named Engineering Programs Program Criteria.
