The dual MSCivE/JD program is offered collaboratively with the Law School. It allows students to double count 12 credit hours of approved graduate civil engineering coursework from the MSCivE towards the JD and 12 credit hours of approved law coursework from the JD towards the MSCivE. The student’s graduate advisors from each program will determine which courses double count as part of the dual program.
The Joint JD/MSCivE program is designed primarily for MSCivE Plan II, or non-thesis option. If the MSCE Plan I, or thesis option, is pursued, a maximum of six hours of law coursework will be allowed to count towards the MSCivE versus up to 12 hours for the MSCivE Plan II.
