Structural Engineering School of Engineering

K. Okoroba

I have always wanted to be a structural engineer but combining my professional career as a civil engineer and pursuing a graduate degree in structural engineering has been difficult for me. The UAB concentration in structural engineering has made the difference for me since I enrolled. It is excellently structured to accommodate professionals like me. In addition, the academic and professional expertise of the faculty and learning support available to students has made it one of the best decisions I have taken.

Student Resources

It is important that our students have computers that are correctly set-up to function properly with Canvas, the UAB course delivery platform. Taking the time to review computer requirements and making the necessary adjustments will ensure that you have a successful computer experience while in the program.

All Structural Engineering (SE) courses are delivered in Canvas. Canvas simplifies teaching and learning by connecting the most frequently used digital tools in one place. Canvas guides, tutorials, a FAQ, and technical support resources are available on the UAB eLearning website.
