The program offers a Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering (BSCE) degree where students receive general instruction in all disciplines, with the option for additional elective courses in desired areas. The curriculum includes basic sciences, social sciences, humanities, communication skills, engineering sciences, and engineering design. The program is divided into two years of Pre-Engineering followed by two years of the admission-based Professional Engineering program. With additional coursework, students can earn a Bachelor of Arts (BA) degree.

OSU's BSCE program is accredited by the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) and is designed to prepare students for professional engineering registration and for responsible engineering positions with business, industry, consulting firms, the military, utilities, or public agencies.

Among the many unique opportunities open to OSU Civil Engineering students is the Civil Engineering Cooperative Program (CECOP). The program offers students a high quality, paid industrial experience and related academic activities while pursuing a degree at OSU. Students in the CE program are also eligible to seek registration as a Professional Engineer or a Professional Land Surveying license.

A more detailed explanation of the BSCE program is contained in the Civil Engineering Undergraduate Advising Guide.
