Undergraduate Studies in Civil Engineering

91Ë¿¹ÏÊÓÆµ's Bachelor of Engineering (B.Eng.) in Civil Engineering program prepares graduates with the scientific, analytical, and engineering skills they need to shape the world through sustainable, resilient, and innovative design. Graduates develop a strong foundation in the core competencies: solid and fluid mechanics, soil behaviour, structural analysis, environmental and transportation systems, and hydraulics and water resources management. Fundamentals are applied through project-based learning, real-world applications, and exposure to the latest advancements in engineering science, computing, and emerging technologies.

With a wide range of complementary and elective courses, students may tailor their studies according to their interests and attain advanced levels of technical knowledge in one or more areas of specializationÌýincluding structural, geotechnical, water resources, transportation, or environmental engineering. Alternatively, they can obtain a broader interdisciplinary training by combining civil engineering courses from across the program’s sub-specialties. Students may also choose to broaden their studies by earning a Minor degree in one of many different areas that will complement your engineering education and prepare you for a fruitfull and fulfilling career. Ultimately, 91Ë¿¹ÏÊÓÆµ's civil engineering graduates are adaptable and creative problem solvers who design safe and resilient infrastructure, build smarter cities, and contribute to a sustainable future.
