On Campus

Civil engineers are engaged in the design, construction, maintenance and management of infrastructure. They are responsible for the design of water supply and wastewater treatment systems, transportation systems, power plants, transmission and communication towers, high-rise buildings, and even aircraft and aerospace structures. Every major structure critical to this country, and the global society, depends on the work of civil engineers.

SMU Lyle civil engineering students are equipped with the skills and knowledge necessary to lead and contribute to civil engineering teams as they create sustainable and resilient infrastructure within an evolving global economy. They graduate as builders, environmental stewards, innovators and advocates for public health, safety and welfare with a degree in one of the most in-demand specialties of today.

Students can also earn a minor in global development through the Civil and Environmental Engineering Department, supported by the Hunt Institute for Engineering and Humanity.
