Programme Introduction
Our programme aims to equip students with a solid foundation in the modern civil engineering profession through five core areas: Structural Engineering, Geotechnical Engineering, Environmental Engineering, Transportation Engineering, and Infrastructure Construction Management. Contemporary technologies such as building information modeling, modular integrated construction, and artificial intelligence are incorporated into the curriculum, enabling graduates to offer innovative solutions to practical problems through planning, design, construction, management, and control. Our programme further emphasizes active learning, capstone experiences, internships, exchange, and research-based studies. These opportunities allow students to develop lifelong learning skills that will help them excel in their careers as competent Civil Engineers.
What You’ll Study
The Main Subject Areas of studies included:
1. Construction Management
2. Environmental Engineering (e.g. wastewater treatment, solid waste treatment)
3. Geotechnical engineering (e.g. engineering geology, soil mechanics, foundation design)
4. Structural engineering (e.g. analysis and design of concrete and steel structures)
5. Transportation Engineering
Exciting Opportunities
Students will build solid foundations in civil engineering through active learning, capstone experience, hands-on activities, internship, exchanges and research-based studies, which prepare them to pursue a professional civil engineer career.
Professional Recognition
The BEng in Civil Engineering (Hons) programme is accredited by The Hong Kong Institution of Engineers (HKIE).
Career Prospect
Most of our graduates have entered various public or private organisations as trainee engineers upon graduation. Some will pursue further education.
Employers included various government works departments (e.g. Architectural Services Department, Civil Engineering and Development Department, Drainage Services Department, Environmental Protection Department, Geotechnical Engineering Office, Highways Department, Housing Department, Transport Department, Water Supplies Department, etc); the MTRC; developers; and consulting and construction firms. Our graduates have normally been able to become qualified/chartered engineers within a few years.
