The Civil Engineering Technology Department offers a bachelor’s degree program in
construction management, a Bachelor of Technology degree program in construction supervision, as
well as an associate degree program in construction engineering technology. Additionally,
it offers an associate in surveying engineering technology and a bachelor's in surveying
and geomatics engineering technology.
MISSION
Provide graduates with the skills necessary to have a successful career in their chosen
field, have a better understanding of the world we live in, and improve their own
lives.
FACILITIES
- Construction management laboratory – This lab is equipped with 20 computer work stations in conjunction with appropriate
estimating software to digitize quantities from drawings and work up estimates electronically.
Software commonly used for project scheduling and planning is also used to develop
CPM charts. Construction project administration software is also used in this lab.
- Soils, concrete, and material testing laboratory – This lab provides a meaningful experience in laboratory and field testing of various
construction materials and structural systems. The equipment enables students to learn
procedures that meet recognized field testing procedures of the American Concrete
Institute (ACI), the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM), and NYS Asphalt
Testing Certification.
- Surveying computations laboratory – The surveying computations lab contains work stations, digitizers, and overhead
projection systems. It is designed to support the 'field-to-finish' concept of surveying
data collection, data reduction, and analysis, as well as computer-aided drafting
and design. Students use this facility to work with land development and design software,
geographic information system software, and the reduction of satellite data. This
lab enables students to do word processing, spreadsheet analysis, programming, data
analysis, networked computer-aided design and drafting, and advanced 3-D modeling.
- Surveying laboratory and equipment room – The surveying lab serves as the basic laboratory/lecture area for surveying field/design
projects. Adjacent to this lab is the room housing a myriad of equipment, including
electronic total stations, global positioning satellite equipment, theodolites, transits,
and levels.
Please note: Students are required to have laptops. The laptops allow students wireless access
to the college network from any location on campus.
