What & Why Civil Engineering

What and why is civil engineering?

 

Civil engineers design, construct, manage and maintain the infrastructure of modern society. Roads, railways, tunnels, buildings, bridges, airports, mines, dams, ports and harbors, water supply and sewerage systems, and flood mitigation works are all shaped by civil engineers.

 Civil engineering is based on Maths, Mechanics, and Physics but it’s also about creative problem-solving. While normally associated with the world’s largest buildings, civil engineers must also effectively adapt the infrastructure to complex challenges such as climate change or natural disasters.
