To help you arm yourself with the information you need to make your decision, Trade College Search has developed this Best Value Civil Engineering Basic Certificate Schools in the Rocky Mountains Region ranking.

This ranking is not just a list of inexpensive schools. We also consider each school's quality, since we believe a low-quality school may not be a 'bargain' at any price. More specifically, we discount our quality score by the published tuition and fees charged by a school. This gives the cost per unit of quality for each college. The value is determined by how much quality your dollar buys.

For nationwide and regional rankings, we use out-of-state tuition and fees in our calculations. Average in-state tuition and fees are used for our statewide rankings.

The following school tops our list of the Best Value Civil Engineering Technology Basic Certificate Colleges.
