FACULTY OF CIVIL ENGINEERING

The faculty offers an unsurpassed range of opportunities for education and training in civil engineering
through its various departments, excellence centres and up-to-date state-of-the-art facilities. As an institution
of higher learning it has contributed its expertise and man-power to various organisations and the society in
general.

Our vision is to be a world class centre for professional education and research in civil engineering via
academic excellence and technological development through creativity. We produce the best problem solver
in the country and more importantly is, we ENGINEERED IDEAS.
