The Citadel School of Engineering Message from The Dean of Engineering Welcome to the School of Engineering at The Citadel website. I a Engineers play a significant role in today’s society both nationally and internationally. They play a major role in improving the quality of our day-to-day lives. Whether it is the power to our homes, operating our computers, using cell phones, bridging communities, driving down a modern highway, or ensuring that disease is kept in check by the removal of all our waste, engineers have had a significant impact on our day to day lives. In addition, engineers create wealth through the products that they design. All one has to do is to look at the housing, automobile, computer, and transportations industries to see the large impact engineers have had on our economy. Engineering has had proud record of contributions at The Citadel since the Citadel inception in 1842. The Civil and Environmental Engineering Department was established in 1912 and became fully accredited by what is now the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) in 1936. Its student chapter of the American Society of Civil Engineering (ASCE) was established in 1937. The Electrical and Computer Engineering Department was established in 1941 and became fully accredited by ABET in 1976. Its student chapter of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) was established in 1962. The School of Engineering was established on 1 January 2003. The major objectives of the School is to:

proud of our two nationally recognized programs of study in civil
engineering and electrical engineering that make up the School of
Engineering. I believe that what makes our programs standout is the
highly qualified faculty in both departments that are committed to
teaching excellence. These programs lead to a fully accredited
Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering degree or Bachelor of Science
in Electrical Engineering degree.
