Breadth and Depth Required Electives

Civil Engineering students must take a total of 6 breadth and depth electives.

Breadth Requirement:

Take one course in four of the six sub-discipline areas listed below.

Depth Requirement:

Take two additional courses in the sub-discipline areas in which you have already taken courses.

1) You can either take two additional courses in one of the four sub-discipline areas in which you have already taken one course.

2) Or, you can take one additional course in one of the sub-discipline areas in which you have already taken a course and an additional course in a second sub-discipline area in which you have already taken a course.

Breadth and Depth Electives

Please see UNM schedule (schedule.unm.edu) for planned course offerings each semester.  In addition, here is list of when our undergraduate courses are "typically offered."

Online courses

Students may apply graduate-level civil engineering courses to meet the depth and breadth electives. Please see an advisor to determine into which category the graduate-level courses fall. In general, 500-level versions of a course listed above would count in the same category as the 400-level course.
