RESEARCH

 

Civil Engineering faculty members conduct research on a variety of topics related to their areas of expertise. The most common mode for student participation in research is the Master’s thesis. Graduate students pursuing the thesis option work under the supervision of a primary thesis advisor to conduct a major research project, earning six semester hours of academic credit. Undergraduate students can also gain research experience working for faculty members in Civil Engineering or other departments on funded research projects.

 

YSU has several programs to promote student involvement in research. For example, the College of Graduate Studies and Research offers Research Assistantship and Undergraduate Research grants. In addition, students are encouraged to present the results of their research at QUEST, an annual two-day research symposium held on the YSU campus.

 

Students interested in learning more about current research opportunities in Civil Engineering are encouraged to contact the Department Chair, Dr. Scott Martin.
