Program description
UNBC provides a challenging civil engineering curriculum together with possibilities for specialized instruction in a variety of fields and business skills training. Buildings, bridges, highways, transit systems, water and waste treatment facilities, foundations, tunnels, dams, and other components of the infrastructure necessary for modern society are all designed by civil engineers today. In addition, they also analyze the effects of deterioration on infrastructure elements while taking system interdependencies and life-cycle impacts into account. When creating modern infrastructure, civil engineers must take the environment's impact and economic sustainability into account.
In keeping with the principles of design, life-cycle assessment, systems engineering, sustainable materials, renewable energy, and low-impact development throughout, UNBC offers an integrated approach to civil engineering.
