For more information, see the College of Graduate Studies Funding website, which describes the types of financial assistance available at UCF and provides general guidance in planning your graduate finances. The Financial Information section of the Graduate Catalog is another key resource.</p><h2>Fellowship Information</h2><p>Fellowships are awarded based on academic merit to highly qualified students. They are paid to students through the Office of Student Financial Assistance, based on instructions provided by the College of Graduate Studies. Fellowships are given to support a student's graduate study and do not have a work obligation. For more information, see UCF Graduate Fellowships, which includes descriptions of university fellowships and what you should do to be considered for a fellowship.</p><p>Students must develop an individual plan of study with a faculty adviser by their second semester of study. At least one-half of the required credits must be taken at the 6000 level.</p><p>Research studies are required in one or more courses. The research study and report will focus on reviewing and analyzing contemporary research in a student's particular specialization within the profession in order to help students acquire knowledge and skills pertaining to research-based best practices in that specialization area. In addition, students may engage in directed independent studies, directed research or a research report during their studies. Courses with asterisks represent those with specific independent learning experiences, and all nonthesis students must choose at least one course with an asterisk.</p><p><strong>Geotechnical Engineering</strong></p><ul> <li>CEG 6065 - Soil Dynamics <strong>3</strong> <strong>Credit Hours</strong> *</li> <li>CEG 5115 - Foundation Engineering <strong>3</strong> <strong>Credit Hours</strong></li> <li>CEG 6317 - Advanced Geotechnical Engineering <strong>3</strong> <strong>Credit Hours</strong></li> </ul><p><strong>Structural Engineering</strong></p><ul> <li>CES 5144 - Matrix Methods for Structural Analysis <strong>3</strong> <strong>Credit Hours</strong></li> <li>CES 5325 - Bridge Engineering <strong>3</strong> <strong>Credit Hours</strong> *</li> <li>CES 5606 - Advanced Steel Structures <strong>3</strong> <strong>Credit Hours</strong></li> <li>CES 5706 - Advanced Reinforced Concrete <strong>3</strong> <strong>Credit Hours</strong></li> <li>CES 5821 - Masonry and Timber Design <strong>3</strong> <strong>Credit Hours</strong></li> <li>CES 6010 - Structural Reliability <strong>3</strong> <strong>Credit Hours</strong></li> <li>CES 6116 - Finite Element Structural Analysis <strong>3</strong> <strong>Credit Hours</strong></li> <li>CES 6209 - Dynamics of Structures <strong>3</strong> <strong>Credit Hours</strong> *</li> <li>CES 6220 - Wind and Earthquake Engineering <strong>3</strong> <strong>Credit Hours</strong></li> <li>CES 6230 - Advanced Structural Mechanics <strong>3</strong> <strong>Credit Hours</strong></li> <li>CES 6527 - Nonlinear Structural Analysis <strong>3</strong> <strong>Credit Hours</strong></li> <li>CES 6715 - Prestressed Concrete Structures <strong>3</strong> <strong>Credit Hours</strong> *</li> <li>CES 6840 - Composite Steel Concrete Structures <strong>3</strong> <strong>Credit Hours</strong> *</li> <li>CES 6910 - Research in Structural Engineering <strong>3</strong> <strong>Credit Hours</strong></li> </ul><p><strong>Transportation Engineering</strong></p><ul> <li>TTE 5204 - Traffic Engineering <strong>3</strong> <strong>Credit Hours</strong></li> <li>TTE 5805 - Geometric Design of Transportation Systems <strong>3</strong> <strong>Credit Hours</strong></li> <li>TTE 5835 - Pavement Engineering <strong>3</strong> <strong>Credit Hours</strong></li> <li>TTE 6205 - Highway Capacity <strong>3</strong> <strong>Credit Hours</strong> *</li> <li>TTE 6256 - Traffic Operations <strong>3</strong> <strong>Credit Hours</strong></li> <li>TTE 6270 - Intelligent Transportation Systems <strong>3</strong> <strong>Credit Hours</strong> *</li> <li>TTE 6315 - Traffic Safety Analysis <strong>3</strong> <strong>Credit Hours</strong> *</li> <li>TTE 6526 - Planning and Design of Airports <strong>3</strong> <strong>Credit Hours</strong></li> <li>TTE 6625 - Mass Transportation Systems <strong>3</strong> <strong>Credit Hours</strong></li> <li>CGN 6655 - Regional Planning, Design, and Development <strong>3</strong> <strong>Credit Hours</strong></li> </ul><ul> <li>CWR 5125 - Groundwater Hydrology <strong>3</strong> <strong>Credit Hours</strong></li> <li>CWR 5205 - Hydraulic Engineering <strong>3</strong> <strong>Credit Hours</strong></li> <li>CWR 5515 - Numerical Methods in Civil and Environmental Engineering <strong>3</strong> <strong>Credit Hours</strong></li> <li>CWR 5545 - Water Resources Engineering <strong>3</strong> <strong>Credit Hours</strong></li> <li>CWR 5634 - Water Resources in a Changing Environment <strong>3</strong> <strong>Credit Hours</strong></li> <li>CWR 5102 - Advanced Hydrology <strong>3</strong> <strong>Credit Hours</strong> *</li> <li>CWR 6126 - Groundwater Modeling <strong>3</strong> <strong>Credit Hours</strong> *</li> <li>CWR 6235 - Open Channel Hydraulics <strong>3</strong> <strong>Credit Hours</strong></li> <li>CWR 6236 - River Engineering and Sediment Transport <strong>3</strong> <strong>Credit Hours</strong></li> <li>CWR 6535 - Modeling Water Resources Systems <strong>3</strong> <strong>Credit Hours</strong> *</li> </ul><p><strong>Construction Engineering and Management</strong></p><ul> <li>CCE 5205 - Decision Support for Infrastructure Projects <strong>3</strong> <strong>Credit Hours</strong></li> <li>CCE 5006 - Infrastructure Systems Management <strong>3</strong> <strong>Credit Hours</strong></li> <li>CCE 5220 - Sustainable Infrastructure Systems <strong>3</strong> <strong>Credit Hours</strong></li> <li>CCE 5937 - Construction Contracts <strong>3 Credit Hours</strong></li> <li>CCE 6036 - Advanced Construction Planning and Control <strong>3</strong> <strong>Credit Hours</strong> *</li> <li>CCE 6211 - Design and Monitoring of Construction Processes <strong>3</strong> <strong>Credit Hours</strong> *</li> <li>CCE 6045 - Cost Analysis of Sustainable Infrastructure Systems <strong>3</strong> <strong>Credit Hours</strong></li> </ul><p><strong>Equipment Fee</strong></p><p>Students in the Civil Engineering MSCE program pay a $16 equipment fee each semester that they are enrolled.

Graduate work and research in civil engineering reflects the very broad nature of the field, which encompasses the design, construction, and enhancement of the infrastructure of society.</p> <p>The program allows highly qualified undergraduate majors in Civil Engineering at UCF to begin taking graduate-level courses that will count toward their master's degree while completing their baccalaureate degree program. The main feature is that the graduate courses replace undergraduate courses, making it possible to complete both degrees in a shorter period of time than students who don’t qualify for the accelerated program.</p> <p>The Master of Science in Civil Engineering (MSCE), Accelerated BS to MSCE degree includes course work in structural analysis and design, geotechnical engineering and foundations, transportation planning and operations, traffic engineering, construction engineering, and water resources engineering.</p> <p>Faculty research interests include geotechnical studies of subsurface conditions, soil testing &quot;superpave&quot; mix design, intelligent transportation systems, traffic safety, structural dynamics, nonlinear structural analysis and software development, reinforced concrete, construction engineering, hydraulic modeling, coastal ocean modeling, stormwater management, and watershed management. Students completing the program find positions in consulting firms, construction, and construction-related industries, in city, county, state, and federal government agencies, and academic institutions.</p> <p>The Civil Engineering MSCE, Construction Engineering Accelerated BS to MSCE Track program requires a minimum of 30 credit hours beyond the bachelor's degree, and both thesis and nonthesis options are available. The thesis option requires 24 credit hours of formal graduate-level course work and 6 credit hours of thesis. The nonthesis option requires 30 hours of formal course work and completion of a culminating experience. For nonthesis MS students, the culminating experience is submission of a portfolio that satisfies program requirements. It is strongly suggested that part-time students pursue the nonthesis option.</p> <p><strong>Total Credit Hours Required: 30 Credit Hours Minimum beyond the Bachelor's Degree</strong></p>",

Graduate work and research in civil engineering reflects the very broad nature of the field, which encompasses the design, construction, and enhancement of the infrastructure of society.</p> <p>The program allows highly qualified undergraduate majors in Civil Engineering at UCF to begin taking graduate-level courses that will count toward their master's degree while completing their baccalaureate degree program. The main feature is that the graduate courses replace undergraduate courses, making it possible to complete both degrees in a shorter period of time than students who don’t qualify for the accelerated program.</p> <p>The Master of Science in Civil Engineering (MSCE), Accelerated BS to MSCE degree includes course work in structural analysis and design, geotechnical engineering and foundations, transportation planning and operations, traffic engineering, construction engineering, and water resources engineering.</p> <p>Faculty research interests include geotechnical studies of subsurface conditions, soil testing &quot;superpave&quot; mix design, intelligent transportation systems, traffic safety, structural dynamics, nonlinear structural analysis and software development, reinforced concrete, construction engineering, hydraulic modeling, coastal ocean modeling, stormwater management, and watershed management. Students completing the program find positions in consulting firms, construction, and construction-related industries, in city, county, state, and federal government agencies, and academic institutions.</p> <p>The Civil Engineering MSCE, Construction Engineering Accelerated BS to MSCE Track program requires a minimum of 30 credit hours beyond the bachelor's degree, and both thesis and nonthesis options are available. The thesis option requires 24 credit hours of formal graduate-level course work and 6 credit hours of thesis. The nonthesis option requires 30 hours of formal course work and completion of a culminating experience. For nonthesis MS students, the culminating experience is submission of a portfolio that satisfies program requirements. It is strongly suggested that part-time students pursue the nonthesis option.</p> <p><strong>Total Credit Hours Required: 30 Credit Hours Minimum beyond the Bachelor's Degree</strong></p>",

                    "description": "<p>The Water Resources Engineering Accelerated BS to MS track in the Civil Engineering MS program, was created for students who are enrolled in the BS Civil Engineering program at UCF. Graduate work and research in Water Resources reflects the very broad nature of the field, which encompasses the design, construction, and enhancement of the sustainable infrastructure for society. The program's course work focuses on water resources modeling, hydraulics and hydrology.</p> <p>The program allows highly qualified undergraduate majors in Civil Engineering at UCF to begin taking graduate-level courses that will count toward their masters degree while completing their baccalaureate degree program. The main feature is that the graduate courses replace undergraduate courses, making it possible to complete both degrees in a shorter period of time than students who don’t qualify for the accelerated program.</p> <p>Water Resource faculty research interests include ecohydraulic and ecohydrologic modeling, groundwater and surface hydrology, sea level rise and other climate change impact assessments, stormwater management, tide, wind-wave and hurricane storm surge modeling, and environmental water resources management. Students completing the program find positions in consulting firms, construction and construction-related industries, in city, county, state, and federal government agencies, and academic institutions.</p> <p>The Water Resources Engineering Accelerated BS to MS track in the Civil Engineering MS program is for students in the UCF BS Civil Engineering program See undergraduate engineering major requirements in the Undergraduate Catalog.</p> <p>Both thesis and non-thesis options are available with each requiring 30 credit hours. The thesis option requires 15 credit hours of required courses, 9 credit hours of elective graduate course work exclusive of thesis and research, and a thesis (6 credit hours). The nonthesis option requires 15 credit hours of required graduate course work, 15 credit hours of electives, and submission of an end-of-program portfolio as a culminating experience. Each student must have an individual program of study approved by his/her faculty committee. At least one-half of the required credits must be taken at the 6000 level for the MS degree. It is strongly suggested that part-time students pursue the nonthesis option. For more details on the MS-Water Resources program, see the entry for the non-accelerated program in this Graduate Catalog.</p> <p><strong>Total Credit Hours Required: 30 Credit Hours Minimum beyond the Bachelor's Degree</strong></p>",

The value and importance of such a program is demonstrated by travel and tourism and is the number one industry globally with immense economic, social, cultural and environmental impacts. Locally, the program promises to deliver significant value for the industry benefitting from a large number of visitors to the state and especially central Florida.</p><p>This powerful industry with $8.3 trillion in economic benefits globally, which functions at the intersection of engineering and management, is being transformed by rapidly increasing technological innovations and advances and is adapting to these changes by creating new employment opportunities to match. The dynamic nature of the industry and technological advances reveal the need for a workforce with advanced skills: fluency in data science and analytics, understanding of complex travel systems, strategic problem solving, big-picture thinking, technical knowledge, and practical skills aligned with technological advances. The changing nature of travel and tourism employment reveals emerging positions in areas of online travel agencies [OTA], global distribution systems [GDS], data analytics, data architecture, predictive analytics, mobile devices, travel apps, geolocation, data visualization, data translation, programming, interface design, virtual reality [VR], augmented reality [AR], hologram technology, travel click technology, business intelligence [BI], social media management, SMART-city design and development, and SMART-technologies and travel systems. The broader travel industry and its subsectors (transportation, lodging, and attractions) are experiencing the disruptive effects of direct and indirect distribution impacted by mobile devices, e-commerce, role of IT in distribution and dynamic pricing, and a highly perishable inventory (e.g., hotel rooms, airline seats) as well as those of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning and becoming increasingly more dependent on analytics as a key facet of business strategy.</p><p><strong>Highlights:</strong></p><ul> <li>Academically-rich, industry-relevant interdisciplinary program</li> <li>Flexible course offerings in face-to-face, mixed and online modalities</li> <li>Offered at UCF's main campus and UCF's Rosen College of Hospitality Management campus</li> <li>Exponential industry growth locally, regionally, nationally and globally</li> <li>Cutting edge curriculum with a strong STEM foundation</li> <li>Research opportunities in both colleges</li> <li>Skills found highly desirable by industry leaders ranging from the local to the international level</li> </ul><p><strong>Total Credit Hours Required: 30 Credit Hours Minimum beyond the Bachelor's Degree</strong></p><p><strong>Please note:</strong> <a href=\"https://www.ucf.edu/online/degree/travel-technology-and-analytics-ms/\" target=\"_blank\">Travel Technology and Analytics MS may be completed fully online</a>, although not all elective options or program prerequisites may be offered online.

For students who work on a research topic with an MAE faculty, XXX 6918 Directed Research (3 credit hours) may be used to substitute EML6085 as the student's independent learning experience. After the graduate program director approves the substitution, the faculty supervising the directed research will create a special registration for the student.  EML 6085 - Research Methods in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering or XXX 6918 Directed Research fulfill the independent learning requirement and either course is required for nonthesis students. </li><li>Earn at least 3 credits from the following types of courses:  Additional elective course from the suggested list above. </li></ul></li></ul></li></ul><h4>Grand Total Credits: <strong>30</strong></h4><h2>Application Requirements</h2><h2>Financial Information</h2><p>Graduate students may receive financial assistance through fellowships, assistantships, tuition support, or loans. For more information, see the College of Graduate Studies Funding website, which describes the types of financial assistance available at UCF and provides general guidance in planning your graduate finances. The Financial Information section of the Graduate Catalog is another key resource.</p><h2>Fellowship Information</h2><p>Fellowships are awarded based on academic merit to highly qualified students. They are paid to students through the Office of Student Financial Assistance, based on instructions provided by the College of Graduate Studies. Fellowships are given to support a student's graduate study and do not have a work obligation. For more information, see UCF Graduate Fellowships, which includes descriptions of university fellowships and what you should do to be considered for a fellowship.</p><p>All students must identify an adviser and file an official degree program of study prior to the completion of 9 credit hours of study. The program of study must be approved by the department and therefore students should consult with the MAE graduate director for assistance in filling out their program of study.</p><p>A student with an undergraduate degree outside of the selected departmental discipline may also be required to satisfy an articulation program. Substitutions to the program of study must meet with the approval of the adviser and the department.</p><strong>Equipment Fee</strong><p>Students in the Aerospace Engineering MSAE program pay a $90 equipment fee each semester that they are enrolled.</p><strong>Independent Learning</strong><p>The independent learning requirement is met by successful completion of a master's thesis for the thesis option. The nonthesis option independent learning experience is provided by the required course, EML 6085 Research Methods in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering (3 credit hours). For students who work on a research topic with an MAE faculty, XXX 6918 Directed Research (3 credit hours) may be used to substitute EML6085 as the student's independent learning experience. After the graduate program director approves the substitution, the faculty supervising the directed research will create a special registration for the student.</p>",

For students who work on a research topic with an MAE faculty, XXX 6918 Directed Research (3 credit hours) may be used to substitute EML6085 as the student's independent learning experience. After the graduate program director approves the substitution, the faculty supervising the directed research will create a special registration for the student.  EML 6085 - Research Methods in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering or XXX 6918 Directed Research fulfill the independent learning requirement and either course is required for nonthesis students. </li><li>Earn at least 3 credits from the following types of courses:  Additional elective course from the suggested list above. </li></ul></li></ul></li></ul><h4>Grand Total Credits: <strong>30</strong></h4><h2>Application Requirements</h2><h2>Financial Information</h2><p>Graduate students may receive financial assistance through fellowships, assistantships, tuition support, or loans. For more information, see the College of Graduate Studies Funding website, which describes the types of financial assistance available at UCF and provides general guidance in planning your graduate finances. The Financial Information section of the Graduate Catalog is another key resource.</p><h2>Fellowship Information</h2><p>Fellowships are awarded based on academic merit to highly qualified students. They are paid to students through the Office of Student Financial Assistance, based on instructions provided by the College of Graduate Studies. Fellowships are given to support a student's graduate study and do not have a work obligation. For more information, see UCF Graduate Fellowships, which includes descriptions of university fellowships and what you should do to be considered for a fellowship.</p><p>All students must identify an adviser and file an official degree program of study prior to the completion of 9 credit hours of study. The program of study must be approved by the department and therefore students should consult with the MAE graduate director for assistance in filling out their program of study.</p><p>A student with an undergraduate degree outside of the selected departmental discipline may also be required to satisfy an articulation program. Substitutions to the program of study must meet with the approval of the adviser and the department.</p><strong>Equipment Fee</strong><p>Students in the Aerospace Engineering MSAE program pay a $90 equipment fee each semester that they are enrolled.</p><strong>Independent Learning</strong><p>The independent learning requirement is met by successful completion of a master's thesis for the thesis option. The nonthesis option independent learning experience is provided by the required course, EML 6085 Research Methods in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering (3 credit hours). For students who work on a research topic with an MAE faculty, XXX 6918 Directed Research (3 credit hours) may be used to substitute EML6085 as the student's independent learning experience. After the graduate program director approves the substitution, the faculty supervising the directed research will create a special registration for the student.</p>",
