A faculty advisor is also someone to whom a student may turn for more general advice concerning types of jobs, choice of employers, the possibility of graduate school, choice of double or combined degree programs, and other career decisions. Academic advisement is also available through the Office of Student Services, School of Engineering and Applied Sciences, located at 410 Bonner Hall. Official records are maintained at this office. Transfer Policy Transfer students must first apply to the university and meet the university transfer admission requirements before consideration for admission to the Department of Civil, Structural, and Environmental Engineering. Civil and environmental engineering courses completed at other colleges and offered as substitutes for UB courses are evaluated individually by the Undergraduate Studies Committee and determination is made by an evaluation of the student s transcripts, course content, contact hours, and grades earned.
Most courses taken from a recognized college-level civil engineering department are acceptable.
See the School of Engineering and Applied Sciences entry for pre-engineering requirements. Descriptions of courses for environmental engineering can be found in the civil engineering entry.
