Civil Engineering Technology

www. linnbenton. edu / go / civil-engineering
Students in the Civil Engineering Technology certificate program are trained to work as surveyors, drafters, and designers in civil engineering and surveying offices. Civil engineering technicians help engineers plan and build roadways, utilities and structures. Engineering technicians work with the design, surveying, construction and inspection of engineering projects. Technicians’ duties are more hands-on and limited in scope than those of engineers.
Engineering technicians need knowledge in the following areas: mathematics, including algebra, geometry and trigonometry; computer usage; structural analysis; surveying; construction specifications and techniques; drafting and reading plans; engineering design methods; and use of the English language.
Graduates of this certificate program can expect to work as entry-level engineering technicians. However, students are encouraged to complete a two-year associate’ s degree to improve their employability. Students can complete the Associate of Applied Science degree in Drafting and Engineering Graphics Technology at LBCC concurrently with the Civil Engineering Technology certificate.
Student Learning Outcomes
Students who successfully complete a certificate in Civil Engineering
Technology will:
• Use AutoCAD ®, Windows ®, civil drafting software and GIS software.
• Visualize and interpret real world situations and translate them into drawings and designs.
• Use surveying equipment to perform basic land and construction surveys.
• Speak and write effectively.
• Think critically to solve engineering problems.
• Work effectively on a team to complete an engineering project.
Program Requirements
A student entering the program with a solid background in mathematics and computer usage can expect to complete the program in four terms. Many of the courses listed as fall term first-year courses have prerequisites, so entering students who are deficient in reading, mathematics or writing will need more time to complete the certificate. Students in this program should expect to do physically active work outdoors.
The program emphasizes the use of mathematics and computers in engineering work. The curriculum starts with background courses in math, drafting, and CAD and works up to project surveys and public
