Construction and Infrastructure Systems Engineering

Master of Science in Civil Engineering

Georgia Tech and CEE policy can be complicated but you should always refer to the CEE Handbook and the Georgia Tech Catalog.

  • 21 credits must be at 6000 level or above.
  • A maximum of 9 credits of 4000 level classes can count towards your MS degree.
  • A maximum of 3 credits of Pass/Fail courses can count towards your MS degree (does not include thesis credits).

Undergraduate Requirements

It is expected that in your undergraduate program you have taken the equivalent of the following engineering courses. If you have not taken such courses, you are required to do so. Credit for the following courses will not be counted toward your Master’s Degree requirements.

1) CEE 3770 (3) – Statistics and Applications

2) CEE 3000 (3) – Civil Engineering Systems

3) CEE 4100 (3) – Construction Engineering and Management

Notes

  • Greater than 6 credits are not counted toward the required total degree hours (30).
  • ** These course options are for MS students, not for BS/MS students who took the courses in their BS study. BS/MS students can get credits towards their major when these courses are taken at the MS level (i.e., it is acceptable as long as the courses are not counted toward their BS study).
  • *** The availability of approved elective courses to CEE students is subject to the discretion of the college/school/ department offering the course. CEE 8900 should be considered an “independent study,” with a semester-long focus on course content or a topic. Examples could be replicating course content from a course that is not offered this semester, delivery of a custom-designed course offering, or other similar arrangements. It can be taken as a letter grade.
  • CEE 8902 should ONLY be used for non-thesis GRAs or GTAs. It cannot count toward a CEE degree.
  • CEE 8956 should be used for research-based credits for MS non-thesis students. It should be considered similar to CEE 7000. All sections are now pass-fail.
  • A maximum of three pass-fail credits can count toward the MS degree, not including CEE 7000
