Why study Civil Engineering?
Civil engineers provide for people's needs, and are expert in the planning, design, construction and maintenance of facilities that contribute to modern life. They understand the way in which natural phenomena behave, including water and wind, and how buildings of all kinds are able to resist loads. They work with buildings, bridges, roads, harbours, dams, airports, coastal protection, water supply and public health. Civil engineers apply their theoretical knowledge to produce efficient and economic facilities that are aesthetically pleasing and satisfy society's needs. They have an aptitude for mathematics and physics and a desire to meet environmental and technological challenges. Civil engineers provide expert financial and technical advice, and plan and coordinate projects from concepts through to completion. Tailor your specialisation in civil engineering with majors or minors that meet your interests and career goals. Civil engineering offers these options: Majors General civil engineering Environmental engineering Fire safety engineering Geotechnical engineering Mining engineering Structural engineering Transport engineering Water and marine engineering Minors Computing Data science Design
