The objective of the civil engineering technology program is to prepare graduates to establish themselves as successful professionals in structural design, site development, and construction management or related areas during the first few years of their careers by having demonstrated their ability to:

1. Identify and solve increasingly complex technical problems, both theoretically and practically, as raised by continually evolving technologies and industry needs and practices.
2. Make educated, responsible, and ethical decisions in response to the needs of the profession and society, with these decisions solidly grounded in science and engineering fundamentals.
3. Work effectively as member or leader of technical teams and clearly communicate ideas leading to successful team outcomes.

The civil engineering technology program has adopted, after deliberations by its constituents, 5 outcomes for the Bachelor of Science program in civil engineering technology. These outcomes are listed below:

1. An ability to apply knowledge, techniques, skills and modern tools of mathematics, science, engineering, and technology to solve broadly-defined engineering problems appropriate to the discipline
2. An ability to design systems, components, or processes meeting specified needs for broadly-defined engineering problems appropriate to the discipline
3. An ability to apply written, oral, and graphical communication in broadly-defined technical and non-technical environments; and an ability to identify and use appropriate technical literature
4. An ability to conduct standard tests, measurements, and experiments and to analyze and interpret the results to improve processes
5. An ability to function effectively as a member or leader on a technical team
