Overview
The Master of Civil Engineering degree at the University of Delaware emphasizes Civil Engineering, while the Master of Applied Sciences degree is for students not having engineering as first degrees. The PhD is aimed at training the graduate student in research within a chosen topic.
All three degrees are based on the student completing an individually designed program of courses and writing a thesis. A non-thesis Master’s degree option is also available, typically for students with professional experience. Students selecting the non-thesis option are not eligible for financial support from the University.
