About Civil Engineering (bsce) in Minnesota State University

The Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering degree does not adhere to the standard general education program required by other majors. Rather, it requires a special distribution of communication, humanities, and social science courses. Courses may be chosen to satisfy the university cultural diversity requirement concurrently.
Required Humanities and Social Science Courses (minimum of 15 credits) To satisfy this requirement, the courses selected must provide both breadth and depth and should not be limited to a selection of unrelated introductory courses. Each student should discuss with his/her academic advisor on the selection of courses to meet this requirement early in their academic career. A current list of acceptable courses is posted in the department office and on the department web site. Specifically, the minimum requirements consist of at least 6 credits in the humanities area, and at least 6 credits in the social sciences area in addition to the Required General Education courses.
To provide the measure of depth to the course of study, at least 3 credits at the 300-level or above must be included in either the humanities of the social sciences requirement. At least one upper division course must follow a course in the same subject area as a course at the 100 or 200 level.
