The Bachelor of Civil Engineering (BE Civil) course is designed to produce engineers who are capable of designing, planning and executing construction of infrastructures. Civil Engineering, considered one of the oldest engineering disciplines, encompasses many specialties. The major specialties within civil engineering and structural, water resources, environmental, construction, transportation and geotechnical engineering.
BE Civil course of Purbanchal University is a four-year (eight semesters), 194 credit hours academic program that incorporates intensive laboratory assignments to give enough exposure and experience with the state-of-the-art facilities and tools.
13 Engineering Colleges of Nepal offers Bachelor of Civil Engineering (BE Civil) course with affiliation from Purbanchal University. Total number of BE Civil seats at Purbanchal University is 1080.
Objectives:
- To provide in-depth knowledge in designing and construction of infrastructures such as tunnels, bridges, roads, dams, hydro power and buildings.
- Provide insight about the impact of engineering solutions in a global, economic, environmental and social context.
- Motivate students for research in recent technologies for future development.
- Develop entrepreneurship skills.
