Johns Hopkins University Whiting School of Engineering 2 courses
The Ph.D. program at the Johns Hopkins University Department of Civil and Systems Engineering (CaSE) aims to inspire the leaders of tomorrow to take on the challenge of creating and sustaining the built environment that underpins our society. Focal research areas in the department include structural engineering, structural mechanics, probabilistic methods, hazards management, and systems engineering. The small size of the department fosters a collegial, close-knit relationship between the students, staff, and faculty, while our partnerships with the Departments of Mechanical Engineering, Biomedical Engineering, Materials Science & Engineering, Applied Mathematics & Statistics, Environmental Health and Engineering, Emergency Medicine, Public Health, and other John Hopkins groups provide a wide range of opportunities that surpasses those of much larger programs. Those who graduate from the CaSE Ph.D. program recognize their responsibility to use engineering principles to improve both the built environment and society as a whole. Graduates have an appreciation of professional ethics and the value of service to their profession and society through participation in technical activities, and in community, state and national organizations.
