Single Degree with 2nd Major

Today’s Civil Engineers contribute to the liveability and sustainability of our environment. This programme provides Civil Engineering students with additional concept of sustainability strives to maintain the health of our world for the benefit of current and future generations.

 

NTU Civil Engineering programme provides a unique engineering education that prepares students to address the challenges of sustainability in future cities. The programme prepares Civil Engineering students for careers related to Urban Infrastructures & Solutions. The civil engineering courses in the programme can be broadly categorised into Infrastructure Development and Urban Solutions.

Infrastructure development

  • Examples of courses: Structural Analysis, Project Management & Planning, Engineering Geology & Soil Mechanics, Construction Technology & Processes

Urban solutions

  • Examples of courses: Civil Engineering & Sustainable Built Environment, Water Resource Engineering, Environmental Engineering, Coastal Engineering, Inland and Coastal Flood Management, Transport Engineering, Highway Engineering

Our curriculum also includes Interdisciplinary Collaborative Core (ICC) Courses and Broadening & Deepening Electives. 

With the Second Major in Sustainability, students will understand how our environment, economy and society interact, applying this to technological innovation and communicating readily with decision makers, in order to maintain the health of our world for the benefit of current and future generations.
