Advanced Diploma in Civil Engineering aims for the development of a professional attitude and cultivates student’s technical proficiency in the Civil Engineering field, including the ability to tackle a wide variety of practical problems in the engineering sector. It focuses on developing students' understanding of mechanics, materials, environmental, geotechnical and structural engineering theory and practice. It is also emphasizing the development of practical skills and experimentation through laboratories, industrial visits, etc.
The Specialist Diploma in Civil Engineering aims to provide students with the necessary technical and professional knowledge and skills to pursue a career in civil engineering or related fields. It also aims to develop students who can think independently, appreciate technical, managerial and social constraints in their working environment and make professional judgements.
Civil engineering is a professional engineering discipline that deals with the design, construction, and maintenance of the physical and naturally built environment, including works like roads, bridges, canals, dams, and buildings. Civil engineering is the second-oldest engineering discipline after military engineering, and it is defined to distinguish non-military engineering from military engineering. It is traditionally broken into several sub-disciplines including architectural engineering, environmental engineering, geotechnical engineering, control engineering, structural engineering etc.
