General Information Civil Engineering deals with the systems and facilities associated with humanity's needs for shelter, work and transportation, which include: bridges, highways, airports, buildings, industrial plants, dams, housing, hydro developments, water supply, sewage and sewage disposal, and marine facilities. Civil Engineers work with other professionals to ensure that civil engineering works do not adversely affect the natural environment. The Civil Engineer can be involved in various stages of a project's life cycle, including planning, design, construction, operation, or maintenance. Curriculum In order to obtain a BScE degree in Civil Engineering, a minimum of 162 credit hours (ch) is required. All courses in the program must be passed with a C or better. The program consists of core courses complemented by a wide range of electives. The program is designed to be completed within eight academic terms; however, the student may arrange for a program that spans a longer time period. Although the program is flexible, care must be taken to avoid difficulties with prerequisites and corequisites or with time-tabling. General Prerequisite Note The following courses (or equivalents) are prerequisites for all 3000-level or higher Civil Engineering courses: CE 1023, ENGG 1001, ENGG 1003, ENGG 1015, CS 1003, MATH 1013, MATH 1503. Areas of Specialization Although the Department of Civil Engineering does not have formal options, students can take elective courses in addition to the required core courses in a specific area to develop a personalized program of study. For example, students interested in the environment may take up to four environmental technical electives in Civil Engineering and one Non-Civil Engineering environmental technical elective in addition to the two environmental core courses required in the program. 2 | P a g e 2018-2019 Calendar Proof
Core Through the core of the Civil Engineering undergraduate program, the student is given a firm base in all aspects of Civil Engineering including the following major areas: Structural; Geotechnical; Construction; Materials; Environmental; Hydrotechnical; and Transportation. In addition to Civil Engineering studies, undergraduates are given instruction in the principles of Mechanical and Geomatics Engineering to enable them to deal intelligently with these branches of engineering in their work. Core courses are also provided by the Arts and Science faculties to give the students the necessary background in the Sciences, Mathematics, Humanities and Social Sciences. The core courses required of all Civil Engineering students are shown below. Core Courses PHYS 1081 Foundations of Physics for Engineers CE 1023 Statics for Engineers CE 2023 Mechanics of Materials CE 2033 Structural Analysis CE 2113 Soil Mechanics I CE 2703 Introduction to Fluid Mechanics CE 2913 Numerical Problem Solving CE 2973 Civil Engineering Design I CE 3053 Reinforced Concrete Design I CE 3063 Structural Steel Design I CE 3123 Foundation Engineering I CE 3201 Transportation Engineering CE 3403 Introduction to Environmental Engineering CE 3513 Materials for Civil Engineers CE 3603 Construction Engineering CE 3713 Hydraulics and Hydrology CE 3963 Engineering Economy CE 3983 Civil Engineering Design II or CE4993 Senior Team Design CHE 2501 General Materials Science CHE 2506 Material Science Laboratory CHEM 1982 General Applied Chemistry CHEM 1987 General Applied Chemistry Laboratory CS 1003 Programming and Problem Solving for Engineers ECON 1073 Economics for Engineers ENGG 1001 Engineering Practice Lecture Series ENGG 1003 Engineering Technical Communications ENGG 1015 Introduction to Engineering Design and Problem Solving ENGG 4013 Law and Ethics for Engineers ESCI 1001 The Earth: Its Origin, Evolution & Age ESCI 1026 Geology Lab for Engineers
