Program objective

This program is aimed at training manpower required for the realization of the country’s untouched civil engineering works. Well qualified civil engineers with adequate knowledge in the area of structural, highway, geotechnical and water resources and who can be actively engaged in the planning, development and management of civil engineering projects will be produced through this program. Specifically, the trainees will be equipped with the knowledge that enables them to execute the following tasks
Undertake project identification, pre-feasibility and feasibility study and detail design of civil engineering works
Prepare complete contract documents and terms of references for civil engineering projects
Plan, manage, monitor and evaluate the operation and maintenance of civil engineering works; and
Remodel and rehabilitate of existing civil engineering works

Graduate profile

Professional civil engineers need a good grasp of mathematics and design, and the ability to manage and liaise with a wide variety of people. They need to be able to think in all dimensions and communicate ideas effectively. This kind of engineering is suited to people who are practical with a creative characteristic. Hence, the graduate from the Civil Engineering Department has the following profile
The ability to apply knowledge of mathematics, science in a specialized area related to civil engineering
The ability to design and conduct laboratory experiments, to critically analyze and interpret data, in major Civil Engineering areas such as , Structural, Geotechnical, Transportation, Water resources, Construction Technology and Management, and Environmental Engineering
The ability to analyze and design a system, component, or process to meet desired needs within realistic constraints such as economic, environmental, social, political, ethical health and safety, constructability, and sustainability in selected major Civil Engineering areas such as Structural, Geotechnical, Transportation, Water resources, Construction Technology and Management, and Environmental Engineering
The ability to function in multidisciplinary teams
The ability to communicate effectively, orally and in writing
The ability to identify, formulate and solve Civil Engineering problems in recognized major civil engineering areas
