Overview

This programme in Civil Engineering at the Namibia University of Science and Technology builds to a level of conceptual sophistication, specialised knowledge and intellectual autonomy in accordance with requirements. Furthermore, the programme in Civil Engineering demands a high level of theoretical engagement and intellectual independence and aims to foster deepened, comprehensive and systematic expertise in the major subject/cognate areas of learning, i.e. structural engineering, transportation engineering, water engineering and geotechnical engineering. 

Students will be equipped with cognitive and intellectual skills, key transferable skills, and professional/technical/practical skills that would enable them to plan, design, construct, and maintain the physical and naturally built environment, including works like bridges, roads, canals, dams, and buildings. The programme includes a substantial element of Work Integrated Learning and requires the conduct and reporting of supervised research in order to adequately prepare students for entry into the profession.
