Resources for Students
Have you ever wondered how to write a literature review? Are you familiar with library research resources available at PSU? Do you know how to cite sources for your class project, thesis or field area paper? How can you successfully avoid plagiarism? For answers to these questions and more, and for students who are new to the field of transportation we have prepared several guides that will be useful for you:
- Learn about our Transportation Engineering Graduate Programs
- Read about the Value of a Graduate Education
- Graduate Certificate in Transportation [link] [Pocket Guide]
- Join the STEP (Students in Transportation Engineering and Planning) email list!
- Transportation Research Guide [PDF].
- How to Write a Literature Review [PDF]
- Dr. Jennifer Dill's Resources for Students
- Scholarship Skills course materials (PSU Computer Science)
- Essay by Wolf Homburger on the future of transportation engineering
- State Support for Higher Education [pdf]

Engineering Education
I am a member of the American
Society for Engineering Education, and also have learned a lot about
engineering education from Richard
Felder's site.

Graduate
Program
We
have an active graduate program with a combination of full-time and part-time
students. Assistantships
are available for the highest-caliber students. Some national fellowships
are also available. We currently offer two graduate degrees:
Transportation Option
Students must follow the departmental guidelines for the M.S. or M.Eng. programs, and indicate an interest in transportation. Read the very useful Graduate Handbook. Once admitted, students develop a customized program under close supervision of their advisor. The Transportation Option offers a wide variety of course, project and thesis opportunities. Students are required to fill out a Program of Study Form.
Ph.D. Civil & Environmental Engineering
Transportation Option
Students must follow the departmental guidelines for the Ph.D. Program, and must establish a working arrangement with an advisor before admission.
Undergraduate
Program
We
offer an ABET/EAC accredited B.S.
in Civil Engineering. Read the Undergraduate
Handbook. Undergraduate students should all join the student chapters
of the American Society of
Civil Engineers (ASCE) and the Institute
of Transportation Engineers (ITE). All undergraduates should obtain
their FE registration.
