Being a Civil Engineer means working on designing, building, and maintaining our environment, including public works like roads, bridges, airports, canals, dams, and buildings.
Civil Engineers are trained to solve the natural and physically built environment's design, construction, and maintenance concerns.
A Civil Engineer applies scientific knowledge to improve infrastructure and standard utilities that meet basic human needs. They are often responsible for large teams involved in project design, planning, and construction processes. This requires regularly meeting, collaborating with, and managing these team members - a combination of surveyors, construction managers, architects, landscape architects, and urban planners.
Pushed by the constant desire and challenges of both developed and developing societies to improve their standard of living and economic strength, there will always be a high demand for civil engineers.
If you are a natural problem solver with solid physics, mathematical, and analytical skills, then a degree in civil engineering will be the right step for you.
The BS Civil Engineering degree at Amity University Dubai gives students the opportunity to build their careers in the construction sector, on buildings and large structures of all kinds, transport and communications infrastructure. You can also work for employers involved in the production, storage and distribution of electricity, gas and water.
Programme Learning Outcomes
On successful completion of the Bachelor of Science Civil Engineering program, the graduate will be able to:
- Identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, and mathematics.
- Apply engineering design to produce solutions that meet specified needs with consideration of public health, safety, and welfare, as well as global, cultural, social, environmental, and economic factors.
- Communicate effectively with a range of audiences.
- Recognise ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations and make informed judgments, which must consider the impact of engineering solutions in global, economic, environmental, and societal contexts.
- Function effectively on a team whose members together provide leadership, create a collaborative and inclusive environment, establish goals, plan tasks, and meet objectives.
- Develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyse and interpret data, and use engineering judgment to draw conclusions.
- Acquire and apply new knowledge as needed, using appropriate learning strategies.
