Course Overview
A Bachelor of Science (BSc) in Civil Engineering is an undergraduate degree program that focuses on the design, construction, and maintenance of infrastructure projects such as buildings, roads, bridges, dams, and water supply systems. Civil engineers play a crucial role in shaping the built environment, ensuring its safety, sustainability, and functionality. The program integrates principles of mathematics, physics, mechanics, and materials science with engineering principles to solve complex engineering challenges. It includes theoretical study, practical laboratory work, fieldwork, and design projects.
