About CE Dept
Civil Engineering plays vital role and in fact, indispensable role in all fields of modern human activities. Consequently, Civil Engineering has established itself as one of the most important branches of engineering. The technical aspects of this branch of engineering are often categorized by terms such as Structural Engineering, Geotechnical Engineering, Environmental Engineering, Transportation Engineering and Water Resources Engineering. The new generation of Civil Engineers is encouraged to undertake research and development activities in the above areas and this department is committed to the study and analysis of fundamental as well as applied problems. Problems of national importance have consequently received great emphasis in the activities of this department. The CE Department of BAUST Khulna, standing on the four pillars of morale: fundamentals, innovation, excellence, and advancements, holds its glory of being the pioneer department of BAUST Khulna. By creating a positive learning environment and sharing the most up-to-date technical knowledge and skills, the Department of CE produces next-generation top-notch engineers and leaders for the nation. The department aims to achieve accreditation under Outcome Based Education (OBE) following the guideline of BAETE and Washington Accord. This department is enriched with highly experienced and disciplined teaching staff having a wide vision. This department highly promotes interactive learning and a collective class-environment which helps the students become more engrossed in employing themselves with the subject-matter and develop their depth of knowledge in engineering education. Besides, the programs emphasizing engineering science and design provides students with ample opportunity to put their knowledge into practice by solving real-world problems under the guidance of our readily approachable faculty members. The proposed B. Sc. in Civil Engineering (CE) program comprises a total of 160 credits and 201 contact hours and 06 weeks of fieldwork and internship. A student of this program can specialize in seven (05) different subjects, such as structural engineering, geotechnical engineering, water resource engineering, transportation engineering, and environmental engineering.
