The Department of Civil, Environmental, and Ocean Engineering at Stevens is committed to research that addresses today’s critical needs while anticipating the challenges of tomorrow. Faculty and students collaborate to develop innovative technologies and apply them in real-world contexts to improve quality of life locally and globally.
Our research is grounded in core technical strengths that shape our academic programs and contribute to the long-term success of our alumni. This work is supported by two premier research centers:
The Davidson Laboratory advances research in naval architecture, ocean engineering and maritime systems, with world-class facilities—including the world’s fastest towing tank and advanced flood forecasting capabilities. The Center for Environmental Systems leads interdisciplinary research in sustainable technologies and environmental resource management, bridging fundamental science with applied innovation.
Graduate Studies: Flexible, Supported, Connected
Graduate studies in Civil, Environmental and Ocean Engineering combine research, technical skills and hands-on experience. Students work with expert faculty in facilities like the Davidson Laboratory and the Center for Environmental Systems, contributing to projects in marine monitoring, ship design and environmental technology. Extensive professional and research opportunities await in New York City, just across from campus.
