Discover Structural Engineering

The Minor in Structural Engineering is intended for students in engineering who desire additional knowledge in the structural or geotechnical engineering areas and whose current major is complementary to these topics.

The Minor in Structural Engineering is not open to students pursuing the Civil Engineering degree.

For details on the Minor in Structural Engineering or for more information, please contact Dr. Camilla Saviz (csaviz@duojiwuye.com), 209.946.3077.

To earn a Minor in Structural Engineering, students must complete a minimum of 20 units and 5 courses, with a Pacific minor grade point average of 2.0. At least 10 units must be taken at Pacific. Requirements of the Minor in Structural Engineering are as follows:

A. Required

  • ENGR 121 (4) Mechanics of Materials
  • CIVL 100 (4) Intro to Structural Engineering

B. One of the following structural design courses:
