The School of Civil and Environmental Engineering is rapidly expanding its research and teaching activities. Its faculty is leading university-wide strategic thrusts such as the recent establishment of the Nanyang Environment and Water Research Institute (NEWRI) that unifies NTU’s environmental and water research domains. NEWRI, with its five research centres and groups works across a broad spectrum spanning membranes, microbiology and bioprocesses, environmental chemistry and urban environmental management. Another thrust is the rock engineering and underground and protective technologies research programmes that are supporting Singapore as a world leader in the development and use of large underground caverns as infrastructure facilities. Going forward, the School is addressing critical problems in sustainable urban systems such as resiliency of urban infrastructure, natural and unnatural risk management, and building and energy.
