General Statement: The Department of Civil and Architectural Engineering at Tennessee State University offers coursework and study pertinent to Civil Engineering and Architectural Engineering. Students completing the program may enter the profession as engineers in civil, structural, architectural, geotechnical, transportation, water resources, environmental, hydraulics, or construction disciplines. Through choice of the proper coursework’s, a student has the opportunity to channel academic studies specifically towards his/her career choice.

Graduates of the program may commence their engineering careers in either industry, engineering consulting firms, construction firms or public service at the federal, state, or local level. Initial assignments may include planning, design and implementation of water resources systems; planning and design of transportation and housing systems; regional planning, design, and management for abatement of air, water and solid waste pollution problems; design of bridges and single and multistory structures; mechanical and electrical systems and supervision of construction projects. The Bachelor of Science Degree in Architectural Engineering and the Bachelor of Science Degree in Civil Engineering are accredited by Engineering Accreditation Commission of the Accreditation Board of Engineering and Technology [EAC/ABET]. http://www.abet.org
