Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering

Civil engineers at Washington State University learn to design, build, and maintain the infrastructure that keeps communities moving — from bridges and skyscrapers to clean water systems, transportation networks, and resilient structures for future generations.

Civil engineers are needed everywhere — every city, every country, across the globe. Graduates are equipped to be successful in engineering practice and many go on to become licensed Professional Engineers (PE, SE), carrying the highest accountability and trust in protecting public safety.
