EWU- Civil Engineering Department-CE

The Department of Civil Engineering (CE) at East West University offers four-year Bachelor of Science (B.Sc.) degree program in Civil Engineering (CE) with an ambition of developing competent work force for the continuous demands in this sector at both home and abroad. The curriculum of the degree is prepared with the intension to groom up the students to effectively contribute in all aspects of Civil Engineering. Therefore, the curriculum of the B.Sc. in Civil Engineering (CE) program focuses on (i) Structural Engineering, which involves the design of structures (Buildings, bridges, flyover, tunnel, tower, retaining walls, etc.) that should be safe for the users, be economical, and accomplish the desired functions. (ii) Geotechnical Engineering, which deals with soils, rocks, foundations of buildings and bridges, highways, sewers and underground water systems. (iii) Water Resources Engineering that concerns the management of quantity and quality of water in the underground and above ground water resources, such as rivers, lakes and streams. Geographical areas are analysed to forecast the amount of water that will flow into and out of a water source. Fields of hydrology, geology, and environmental science are included in this discipline of Civil Engineering, (iv) Environmental Engineering, which is related to the science of waste management of all types, purification of water, cleaning of contaminated areas, reduction of pollution, and industrial ecology and (v) Transportation Engineering, where technology and scientific principles are applied to the planning, functional design, operation and management of facilities for any mode of transportation in order to provide for the safe, efficient, rapid, comfortable, convenient, economical, and environmentally compatible movement of people and goods.
