The centre-point philosophy of the Civil Engineering programme is ‘engagement, relevance and enthusiasm’. These foster skills, knowledge and experience to align with minimum academic standard set by NUC and COREN. That is, to produce graduates with high academic standard with adequate practical background; of immediate value to industry and the nation in general; and be self-employable. To this end, the programme has been designed not only to nourish students with theoretical knowledge, but to also enable them have relevant hands-on laboratory practical experience. In furtherance to the above departmental roles on students, students too also undergo compulsory ‘student industrial work experience scheme’, to foster good interaction between the students and professionals in order for them to gain necessary field experience
