Civil Engineering is the professional practice of designing and developing infrastructure projects. This can be on a huge scale, such as the development of nationwide transport systems or water supply networks, or a smaller scale, such as the development of individual roads or buildings.

In recent years, Civil Engineering has adapted to consider many contemporary environmental concerns, helping to address issues of pollution and scarce water supplies, while considering the potential of sustainable energy within the industry.

The Department of Civil Engineering offers academic training in theory and practice to deal with the planning, designing, constructing, maintaining, and operating of infrastructure. Industrial visits are organized by the department to demonstrate the function of a structure or building by a survey of the actual sites, practical exposure, and allowing students to explore the aspects of the construction projects carried out in the field. The intense modules of this branch mould the students and groom them as professionals to embark in the industry.
