The Civil Engineering Technology program prepares students for employment in field and office positions with architects, engineers, and government agencies as engineering aides, construction, highway or materials technicians, transit operators or estimators. MCCC is located near the central offices of many New Jersey governmental agencies. Graduates have found employment in county, state, and municipal departments of engineering and with many local civil engineering consultants.
Admission requires a high school diploma or equivalent with one year of algebra.
Graduates wishing to pursue studies leading to a bachelor's degree can transfer into the junior year at many institutions. Temple University, New Jersey Institute of Technology, Pennsylvania State University, and Fairleigh Dickinson University are among the institutions accepting Mercer graduates. Electives should be selected in consultation with an academic advisor in order to assure maximum transfer of credits. Email your questions. Students planning to earn the bachelor's degree should take PHY 101 and PHY 102 to satisfy the requirement.
