The Department of Civil Engineering Science was created and placed in the College of Physical and Engineering Sciences in 1957. Previously, Civil Engineering Science was a field of study within the Department of Engineering Sciences. In 1973 it was placed in the College of Engineering Sciences and Technology as the Department of Civil Engineering Science. In 1978 the name of the department was changed from Civil Engineering Science to Civil Engineering. The Department Chairs were Harry Hodson (1957-1959), Dean K. Fuhriman (1959-1961), Ralph L. Rollins (1960-1962), Cliff S. Barton (1962-1970), D. Allan Firmage (1970-1973), James R. Barton (1974-1981), and Henry N. Christiansen (1981-1984).
