Civil Engineering

• To prosper in academic activities by continual improvement in teaching methods, laboratory facilities and research activities.
• To enrich knowledge and encourage the students to become entrepreneurs.
• To produce engineers who can participate in technical advancement and social enlistment of the country and to meet the growing global changes.

The Department offers practical oriented Courses in a perfect academic environment with a fully furnished infrastructure.

Civil engineers design and build many of the things that we use every day. Civil engineers work in the following fields: structures, transport, energy, water and food production. Many civil engineers work in the building industry together with architects, surveyors and building services engineers when designing structures and foundations for large buildings. Civil engineers design transport systems and build roads, stations and airports.

They also design systems for controlling traffic to ensure effective and safe use of the road system and aim to reduce the impact of roads and traffic on the environment. Civil engineers design and construct all types of power stations and hydroelectric projects.

Civil engineers are also involved in the research in harnessing renewable sources of energy such as geothermal and wave power.

Civil engineers design dams to create water storage reservoirs. Hydropower is used to generate electricity or the water may be diverted through tunnels, canals and pipelines to provide irrigation for the land, to transport water to cities and supply safe drinking water to homes and industry after due water treatment by engineers.

They also provide the systems for the collection and treatment of sewage so that it can be returned to the environment without causing pollution.

Civil engineers need to be good at maths, communication and design. Civil engineering utilizes technical information obtained from numerous other feilds such as science and technology.

Civil engineering is expected to be revolutionized by new technologies such as design software, GPS, GIS systems and other recent technical expertise in various fields.

Technology will continue to make important changes in the application of civil engineering, including the rapid progress in the use of 3-D and 4-D design tools.
