The Civil Engineering program is a four-year program that provides students with the knowledge and expertise necessary in planning, design, construction, supervision, and maintenance of facilities essential to modern life. These facilities vary widely in nature, size, and scope and include offshore structures, bridges, buildings, tunnels, highways, transit systems, dams, airports, ports and harbors, towers, and water distribution systems.
The program also provides students the fundamental skills in land surveying, highway and transportation engineering design, structural design, and construction materials selection and testing. It also includes topics in flood controls, landslide, air and water pollution, and the design of facilities to withstand earthquakes and natural hazards.

PROGRAM EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES
The Civil Engineering program has adopted the following educational objectives.
Three to five years after graduation, the Civil Engineering alumni shall:
- have advanced their practice or achievement in the field of Civil Engineering and/or other endeavors or advocacies supported by their acquired civil engineering education;
- strive to be globally competitive through
- living by the T.I.P. mission values, pursuing continuing education, and practicing continuous quality improvement in their personal lives;
- continuously scanning, adopting, and building on the best practices in their field.
STUDENT OUTCOMES
By the time of graduation, students will be able to:
T.I.P. SO 1. identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying knowledge and principles of engineering, science, and mathematics;
T.I.P. SO 2. apply engineering design to produce solutions that meet specified needs with consideration of public health, safety, welfare, global, cultural, social environmental, and economic factors, in accordance with standards appropriate to the discipline;
T.I.P. SO 3. communicate effectively on complex engineering activities with various communities including engineering experts and society at large using appropriate levels of discourse;
T.I.P. SO 4. recognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations and make informed judgments, which must consider the impact of engineering solutions in global, economic, environmental, and societal contexts;
T.I.P. SO 5. function effectively on a team whose members together provide leadership, create a collaborative and inclusive environment, establish goals, plan tasks, and meet objectives by applying knowledge of engineering and management principles;
T.I.P. SO 6. develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data, and use engineering judgment to draw conclusions;
T.I.P. SO 7. acquire and apply new knowledge as needed, using appropriate learning strategies.
