Civil Engineering Technology: A.A.S.

Busy highway at night

Program Mission
The mission of the Civil Engineering Technology program is to prepare our students for careers in the construction industry with an A.A.S degree and/or the possibility of transferring to a 4-year Civil Engineering Technology program. The program utilizes small class sizes as well as hands on laboratories in a majority of classes to provide students the skills necessary to become a competent and well-respected engineer. Our faculty are proud to work with employers to continuously improve the program and maintain our ABET accreditation.
Program Learning Outcomes
Graduates with an Associate in Applied Science in Civil Engineering Technology shall:
  • have a well-rounded knowledge of Civil Engineering Technology, allowing for employment into the civil engineering, construction, architectural, or other related fields.
  • have the ability to work productively and with increasing responsibility for employers involved in all phases of the construction industry, from planning and design of buildings, bridges, highways, commercial and industrial facilities to management and inspection of the construction process.
  • have the ability to pursue and successfully complete a Bachelor of Technology degree if so desired.
  • have an appreciation of the need for lifelong learning, an understanding of professional responsibilities, and a strong work ethic.
  • have the ability to communicate effectively through both written and verbal means.

Civil Engineering Technology is an exciting, diverse field with excellent employment opportunities locally, state-wide and nationally. Civil Engineering Technologists are involved in all phases of the construction industry, from the planning and design of buildings, bridges, highways, commercial and industrial facilities to management and inspection of the construction process. Graduates find rewarding careers with consulting engineering companies, construction companies and government agencies such as New York State’s Department of Transportation or Broome County’s Engineering Department.

The need to rebuild and repair the nation’s aging infrastructure creates a strong market for CET graduates. Typical entry-level jobs Civil Engineering Technology graduates include:

  • Computer Aided Design (CAD)
  • Surveying
  • Construction Inspection
  • Highway Design
  • Construction Materials Testing
  • Structural Detailing
  • Construction Cost Estimating

  • have the ability to communicate effectively through both written and verbal means.

The Civil Engineering Technology program is a modern educational program, incorporating state-of-the-art labs. More specifically, training in areas such as AutoCAD Revit Architectural Suite 2015, GPS Equipment, AutoCAD 3D Civil, and Microsoft Office 2013 are built into the curriculum. Students also have the opportunity to achieve ACI Certification. The program is designed for immediate career opportunities; however, about 50% of the graduates transfer into a Bachelor of Technology level program, and receive full two-year transfer credit at a number of institutions. Graduates may also transfer into a 4-year engineering program with additional physics, chemistry and calculus courses at SUNY Broome.

The Civil Engineering Technology curriculum is accredited by the Engineering Technology Accreditation Commission of ABET.
