Bachelor of Engineering in Civil Engineering

Today’s Civil Engineers not only build modern engineering marvels, but they also contribute to the liveability and sustainability of our environment. They improve the living spaces, fight against climate change, provide clean air and water, and ensure efficient urban mobility.

NTU Civil Engineering programme provides a unique engineering education that prepares students to address the challenges of sustainability in future cities. The programme prepares Civil Engineering students for careers related to Urban Infrastructures & Solutions. The civil engineering courses in the programme can be broadly categorised into Infrastructure Development and Urban Solutions.

Infrastructure development

• Examples of courses: Structural Analysis, Project Management & Planning, Engineering Geology & Soil Mechanics, Construction Technology & Processes

Urban solutions

• Examples of courses: Civil Engineering & Sustainable Built Environment, Water Resource Engineering, Environmental Engineering, Coastal Engineering, Inland and Coastal Flood Management, Transport Engineering, Highway Engineering

Curriculum also includes Interdisciplinary Collaborative Core (ICC) Courses and Broadening & Deepening Electives. 

Besides B.Eng. in Civil Engineering, students can choose to undergo more in-depth study of sustainable urban solutions in our Second Major programme in Society and Urban Systems. This second major programme provides Civil Engineering students with socio-economic and environmental perspectives to prepare them for career pathways related to Urban Planning. Besides additional courses on urban planning, students in this second major will study courses selected from three categories - Urban Economics and Public Policy, Society and Culture, and Water & Environmental Management.

Other Second Majors for Civil Engineering are Business, Data Analytics, and Entrepreneurship (refer to Related Programmes at the bottom of page).
