The Program
Civil engineering technology (CvET) professionals are problem-solvers who apply practical knowledge of engineering science, engineering design, and laboratory techniques. SUNY Poly’s CvET program values and encourages academic and intellectual achievement as it instills the profession’s fundamental technical competencies. The program’s core educational objectives are to collaborate with industry, business, government, and other academic institutions to ensure graduates are equipped with: • Applied engineering skills and the ability to progress to higher levels of responsibility in their chosen area • Practical problem solving and hands-on skills rooted in the fundamental areas of CvET • The desire to become life-long learners, and to grow and continue their professional development through graduate studies, workshops, membership in professional societies and professional registration
The engineering technology programs at SUNY Poly are accredited by the Engineering Technology Accreditation Commission of ABET.

Areas of Study
What You’ll Study
Students may choose one or more emphases in transportation, structural, construction, or geotechnical depending on their individual interests and professional goals.
Calculus I & II Physics I & II Chemistry Liberal Arts Civil Materials and Testing Computer Science Elective Construction Methods Introduction to Engineering Technology Statics Strength of Materials Structural Analysis Engineering Graphics Surveying Soils and Foundations Steel or Concrete Design Hydrology Hydraulics Transportation Professionalism in the Workplace Water and Wastewater Systems Economic Analysis in Technology Capstone Design
Structural: structural analysis, building/structural design, conceptual to final design projects, and finite element analysis. Transportation: transportation planning, design of roadways and bridges, and drainage design. Construction: project scheduling, project administration and construction methods and materials. Geotechnical: foundation analysis and design, earth structures design, slope stability.
Faculty SUNY Poly faculty work closely with students and challenge them to excel. Many faculty members have obtained their professional engineering license and have industrial experience. In addition, the faculty conduct research and encourage student participation in research activities. A low student-to-faculty ratio means that faculty get to know and work closely with students in and out of class.
Career Opportunities
A degree in CvET allows the opportunity to select a career in a variety of settings. Graduates may choose to pursue employment in planning, design, construction, management, inspection, technical services or sales. Employers often include engineering design firms, design/build construction firms, and the local, state and federal government agencies. Graduates can become professionally licensed in New York State in their specific area of expertise or pursue an advanced degree.
Labs Students have access to several laboratories with industry-standard civil engineering computer applications. Laboratories are PC-based networks running applications in AutoCAD, Microstation, RAM Structural System, InRoads, Microsoft Project, gINT, Driven, and GeoSlope. In addition to computer labs, students perform hands on soils and materials (aggregate, cement, bitumen, concrete, steel) testing.
CAD Proficiency
Success in engineering technology depends on proficiency in computer aided drafting (CAD). Many SUNY Poly CvET graduates are actively involved with CAD or work directly with those who are. To ensure CAD proficiency and career success, SUNY Poly requires all CvET students to pass a CAD Test to graduate.
Our Campus Located in Utica, NY, on hundreds of wooded and landscaped acres, SUNY Poly’s campus is a beautiful living and learning environment. Students live in our modern, spacious residential complexes, including the new Hilltop Hall, SUNY’s first zero-net carbon residence hall, and enjoy an expanding array of student-focused facilities that include our state-of-the-art Center for Global Advanced Manufacturing, Student Center, and Wildcat Field House. Life on campus is enriched by a wide variety of events and activities, including the Wildcats’ championship-winning intercollegiate athletics program, our Wildcat Esports team, and a weekly agenda of intramurals, concerts, comedians, and more. Students can join one of the dozens of clubs and organizations or start one with a group of friends who share an interest.
