Washington State University and Texas A&M University are among the top universities to study Civil Engineering in the USA for international students. They offer quality education to students at a low cost. Mentioned below is the comparison between them in terms of tuition fees and acceptance rates:

UniversitiesFirst Year Tuition FeesAcceptance Rate
Washington State UniversityINR 24.48 L85%
Texas A&M UniversityINR 13.89 L64%

WSU is better than Texas A&M in terms of acceptance rate but Texas A&M is better than WSU in terms of tuition fees. Therefore, it's your choice where you want to apply for admission.

The average tuition fee for Construction Engineering courses ranges from INR 2 lakh - 6 lakh. Other than the tuition fee, you need to to check for the additional charges like the hostel accomodation fee (if you're staying in the college hostel), application fee at the time of admission, semester exam fee, lab fee, etc.

Hi,

One of the major differences between Construction and Civil Engineering is that the latter is more involved in the planning, designing and implementing projects while Construction Engineering focuses more on the methods, procedures and aspects of construction. Moreover, Construction Engineering is offered as a specialisation in Civil Engineering courses. Let's explore the key differences:

FeatureConstruction Engineering

ActivitiesProject management, budgeting, scheduling, on-site supervision
Structural analysis, material selection, geotechnical studies, environmental impact assessments
EducationOften focused on construction methods and procedures
Broader curriculum covering various engineering disciplines
SkillsLeadership, communication, problem-solving, technical knowledge
Strong analytical skills, creativity, ability to understand complex systems

Hope this answer resolves your query !
