Civil Engineering: Building better future for society and yourself

When you are thinking about high-rise buildings and stadiums, it stands as a testament to the comprehensive work of civil engineers. However, Civil Engineering is not limited to the building structures. It could be divided into a number of other disciplines dealing with transportation, urban design, water resources, sustainability and environment. In fact, the entire infrastructure of a modern nation is the creation of civil engineers.

As the mankind strives to build the buildings better utilizing the living and working space, civil engineers are facing new challenges making those structures stronger, more resistant to natural disasters and having greater capacities. This is a fast growing field to develop the employability, where the challenges are increasing as human population expands rapidly and occupies more space on the planet than it was 30 years ago. The successful future engineer will need strong analytical skills, practical ingenuity, creativity, professionalism and the pursuit of lifelong learning.
