Department ofCivil Engineering

From the very beginning, PU has gained recognition for its forward-thinking educational programs. The university diligently adheres to the rigorous academic standards set forth by the Washington Accord (USA), ensuring that its graduates are globally competitive and prepared for the challenges of the modern world. The Department of Civil Engineering exemplifies this commitment to excellence, with nearly all faculty members hailing from prestigious institutions such as BUET (Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology) and non-departmental faculty from Dhaka University. These highly qualified professionals, with their deep expertise and dedication, elevate the academic experience for students, providing them with the guidance necessary to excel.

A Leading Department Driving Innovation

In its mission to enhance the Faculty of Engineering and Applied Sciences, PU established the Department of Civil Engineering in 2003. The department offers a Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering (B.Sc. in CE), an extensive program that spans five key areas of study:

• Structural Engineering
• Geotechnical Engineering
• Transportation Engineering
• Environmental Engineering
• Water Resources Engineering

Each division offers a carefully designed blend of core and advanced courses, ensuring that students receive a comprehensive and rigorous education. The curriculum integrates essential fields such as mathematics, basic sciences, and humanities alongside specialized civil engineering subjects. This multidisciplinary approach prepares students to emerge as future leaders in the civil engineering sector, equipped with the skills to solve both local and global challenges.

A Vision for Sustainable Growth and Global Impact

The core mission of the Department of Civil Engineering is to disseminate knowledge, build professional skills, and drive innovation through education and research. Students are trained in interdisciplinary approaches, where they confront complex issues that span economic, social, and environmental realms. The department places a strong emphasis on sustainable infrastructure development and the creation of built environments that support growth, both within Bangladesh and around the world.

By cultivating these skills, PU ensures that its graduates not only contribute to the national economy but also make significant strides in shaping the global civil engineering landscape. Through its academic rigor and visionary approach, the Department of Civil Engineering at Presidency University continues to set new standards in higher education, reaffirming its position as a leading institution in Bangladesh.
