Message from the Dean:
“Civil & Environmental Engineering is the backbone of modern infrastructure. Our college is committed to preparing future engineers who can develop sustainable solutions for the evolving needs of society. We wish you success in your studies and future careers.”
Civil & environmental engineering is a specialization showing the evolution of the community structurally in terms of providing buildings , infrastructure and facilities that provide the requirements of a modern and sustainable life. This requires the preparation of qualified engineers who are able to solve engineering problems and develop consistent practical solutions with scientific and technical progress and taking into account the local conditions and the availability of materials, resources and requirements of the community .
The college seeks to provide the appropriate conditions for graduating engineers with a cognitive level that enables them to engage in the practical life, or complete their higher studies after graduation, and in order to achieve this a studying plan was put , and it relies on the scientific foundations of engineering and the selection of a competent faculty and the link between the theoretical and practical foundations by placing lectures, practical lessons, practical projects and communicating with the professors.
Dear students the college wishes you success in your careers, professional school and life after graduation.
