UC San Diego Structural Engineering

Our mission is to advance the structural engineering profession through research, teaching, and service by integrating engineering mechanics theories, computational modeling simulations, experimental testing observations, and practical design concepts.

As the only Structural Engineering Department in the United States, we are at the forefront of research in civil and geotechnical structures, aerospace structures and composites, structural health monitoring (including nondestructive evaluation), and computational mechanics. We have state-of-the-art facilities, including the Englekirk Structural Engineering Center, the SRMD Laboratory, and the Powell Laboratories. 

We offer the following degrees: 
- Bachelor of Science (B.S.) in Structural Engineering 
- Master of Science (M.S.) in Structural Engineering 
- Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) in Structural Engineering
