Bachelor of Science - Civil Engineering (CMU /CU Boulder Partnership)

The Bachelor of Science degree in Civil Engineering is offered at Colorado Mesa University through the CMU/CU Boulder Engineering Partnership Program and is delivered in its entirety in Grand Junction. Students take classes from faculty of Colorado Mesa University during the first half of the program and take engineering classes from faculty of the University of Colorado Boulder who reside in Grand Junction during the second half of the program. Students apply for admission to the University of Colorado Boulder during the second year of the program.

Students in the Engineering Partnership Program enjoy small class sizes, hands-on learning, and faculty who put teaching first. The curricula of the engineering partnership programs are modeled after the corresponding programs at the University of Colorado Boulder.

All first- and second-year students in the Engineering Partnership Program are assigned an engineering student mentor who provides 1:1 coaching on class registration, campus resources, and tips on what it takes to be a successful engineering student.

Students are required to take the Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) Exam before graduating. The FE exam is the first step in the process of becoming a professional licensed engineer (PE). It is designed for students who are close to finishing an undergraduate engineering degree from an ABET accredited engineering program.
