Civil Technology is one of the oldest and most essential branches of engineering, responsible for designing, constructing, and maintaining the infrastructure that supports modern life. The 4-year Diploma-in-Engineering in Civil Technology prepares students to work in the planning, development, and supervision of construction projects such as buildings, roads, bridges, dams, water supply systems, and other public works.
This program focuses on providing both theoretical knowledge and practical skills to ensure graduates are competent in handling engineering projects from concept to completion. Students gain expertise in surveying, structural design, construction materials, and environmental sustainability—skills that are in constant demand in both the public and private sectors.
Key Learning Areas:
- Engineering Drawing & CAD – Creating accurate technical drawings and designs using computer-aided tools.
- Surveying – Measuring and mapping land using traditional and modern equipment.
- Building Materials & Construction – Properties, uses, and testing of construction materials.
- Structural Design & Analysis – Designing safe and efficient structures using engineering principles.
- Transportation Engineering – Planning and constructing roads, highways, and transportation systems.
- Hydraulics & Water Resources – Designing water supply, drainage, and irrigation systems.
- Soil Mechanics & Foundation Engineering – Analyzing soil properties and designing suitable foundations.
