Through the new course, students will learn about different areas of civil engineering, including: -
- Construction
- Project Management
- Design and Testing
- Design and drafting of concrete, roads, pipes and steelwork
- Hydrology
- Stormwater drainage and foundations
Civil engineering involves the wide implementation of mechanics for designing large structures that are fundamental to basic living, such as bridges, buildings, dams, walls and tunnels. On the other hand, Structural Engineering involves designing of structures so that the structures do not collapse or behave in undesirable ways.
