Geoengineering B.GeoE.CSENG Civil, Envrn & Geo-Eng (CEGE)
College of Science and Engineering
The mission of the geoengineering program comprises three overlapping and mutually supportive components:
* Prepare students to become productive engineers and contributing members of their professional community.
* Prepare students for continual learning and professional development.
* Prepare students for formal advanced education.
The three objectives of our geoengineering program are that the graduates of the geoengineering program will:
1. practice technical proficiency and adaptability, and participate in life-long learning to meet the challenges facing the profession in civil engineering/geoengineering industries, government agencies, academia, or other careers;
2. exhibit strong communication, interpersonal, and management skills as leaders and team members in their profession;
3. realize their role as ethical professionals that protect and sustain human health, welfare, and the environment.

Program Sub-plans
A sub-plan is not required for this program.
Honors UHP
This is an honors sub-plan.
Students admitted to the University Honors Program (UHP) must fulfill UHP requirements, in addition to degree program requirements. Honors courses used to fulfill degree program requirements will also fulfill UHP requirements.
Current departmental honors course offerings are listed at: http://www.honors.umn.edu/academics/curriculum/dept_courses_current.html.
Honors students complete an honors thesis project in the final year, most often in conjunction with an honors thesis course, or with an honors directed studies, or honors directed research course. Students select honors courses and plan for a thesis project in consultation with their UHP adviser and their departmental faculty adviser.
