A minimum of 30 semester credit hours of approved courses is required for the Master of Engineering degree (M.Eng.) and the Master of Science (Non-Thesis). Thesis work is also not part of a M.Eng. degree. The university places limitations on these credit hours in addition to the requirements of the CEM program. Approximately 1/3 of the 30 required credit hours of coursework should be taken outside the major area of study, Construction Engineering and Management. A complete discussion of university requirements is found in the currentTexas A&M University Graduate Catalog.

Pre-requisites
All of the following courses and their pre- and corequisite coursework are considered pre-requisites to the M.Eng. and Master of Science (Non-Thesis) program of study in construction engineering and management (CEM): CVEN 349, CVEN 405, CVEN 473, or equivalents that are approved by the CEM Graduate Advisor,Dr. John Walewski. Courses listed in acceptance papers for which a student lacks credit must be completed, but those credits cannot be applied toward the 30 semester credit hour requirement. Pre-requisite coursework must be completed during your first semester at Texas A&M University, as they are pre-requisites for all CEM graduate courses.
All Master of Science (Non-Thesis) students are required to enroll in two semesters of CVEN 681 Seminar taught on a bi-weekly basis. Students can enroll for 0 or 1 semester credit hours.
NOTE:At most, 1 credit hour of CVEN 681 can count towards your degree plan and that credit must be taken for the second semester of CVEN 681.
Advising Committee
The Master of Engineering and Master of Science (Non-Thesis) program has a single advisor or chair. The advisor/chair must be a member of the CEM faculty listed above. Students are assigned a CEM graduate student advisor from the CEM faculty by the CEM graduate program coordinator. No external members are required or allowed for this degree plan.
