Course Overview
Structural Engineering is a Civil Engineering discipline which emphasizes analytical and experimental studies of the behavior of structures (e. g. , buildings, bridges, and dams) under service loads (e. g. , traffic) and environmental loads (e. g. , wind and earthquake). Emphasis is placed on response predictions or computations for these structures and their constituent materials (e. g. , steel, reinforced concrete, and composites). Study is made of the nature of these loadings, both static and dynamic, with implications being drawn for design. Available Online This program is also available online to professional engineers through the Distance Education Network (DEN@Viterbi). Because the DEN@Viterbi program provides a fully equivalent academic experience, the degree a USC engineering student earns is the same whether they are on-campus or online.
