Undergraduate Program
Civil Engineering major is multidisciplinary in nature. It covers aspects of studies that relate to the essential needs of mankind. It embodies planning, design, construction, maintenance, and operation of private and public facilities such as buildings and structures, transportation, water supply and wastewater systems.
Program Educational Objectives
The educational objectives, set by the department to achieve its Vision and Mission, are:
1. to produce high-quality graduates with a strong background in civil engineering fundamentals to compete in the job-market to secure a professional career.
2. to produce graduates to demonstrate in their profession the ability to apply the principles of mathematics, basic sciences and engineering in solving civil engineering problems.
3. to prepare graduates to deal responsibly with the ethical, professional and social responsibilities.
4. to prepare graduates to communicate effectively in professional dialogue, and to continue to develop professionally through lifelong learning.
