Course Outline:
The Civil Engineering Technology curriculum provides trainees with the study materials that enables them to perform the tasks associated with the profession of a Civil Engineer, Structural Engineer, or Highway Engineer. This print-based curriculum has been developed to meet the subject requirements of an organizations skills program. When combined with on-the-job training, this program will provide trainees with the comprehensive skills and knowledge they will need to perform in this technical area. The Civil Engineering Technology curriculum starts with comprehensive training in mathematics and the principles of measurement. The curriculum prepares trainees to perform land and construction surveys, and to prepare topographic maps and right-of-way layouts. The training progresses to the design and construction of structures such as buildings, bridges, roads, tunnels, water supply, and sewerage systems. This curriculum is appropriate for people who require the technical proficiency of a surveyor; an engineer for a construction company, public works department or a transportation company; a drafter-designer for an engineering or architectural firm. Prior to starting this program, it is essential that the person possess a high school degree or the GED Equivalency Certificate. Upon completion of this program, students will be able to:
  • Explain the principles associated with linear surveying, transit surveying, topographic surveying, hydrographic surveying and city surveying, and the related engineering applications and operations.
  • Design, detail, and construct using structural steel, reinforced concrete and wood.
  • Apply mathematical and scientific principles in the engineering context.
  • Design and detail foundations, steel and concrete building frames, roof trusses, plate girders, flat slabs, retaining walls, masonry arches, rigid frames, and steel bridges.
  • Design, prepare, and construct roads paved with concrete and asphalt.

    Special Note:
    The Center for Degree Studies (CDS) of Education Direct offers an Associate in Specialized Technology (AST) educational degree in Civil Engineering Technology. This program requires two years or more of study including a laboratory training session. Many of the courses listed in the following skills curricula are also covered in the CDS program. For more information regarding CDS, refer to Resource 12 of the Skills Development Guide or contact your Education Direct Training Consultant.
