Bachelors of Civil Engineering – University of South Asia – Lahore
Course name: Bachelors of Civil Engineering
Course overview:
Civil Engineering is described as the art of sustainably harnessing the natural environment to meet human needs. The success of this endeavor is evident all around us. The arid plain which greeted the early settlers in Southern California has been transformed into a thriving metropolis largely by the application of civil engineering.
The educational mission of the Civil Engineering program is to provide students with an multidisciplinary curriculum that is fundamental, yet broad and flexible, to produce graduates who are well-grounded in mathematical, scientific, and technical knowledge; have the ability to analyze, evaluate, and design civil engineering systems; have the ability to communicate effectively; have had meaningful opportunities for undergraduate research; and who have acquired an understanding and appreciation for global and societal issues and are thus prepared for a career path toward leadership in industry, government, and academia.
No. of semesters: 8 semesters
Requirements:
- Intermediate or ICS with a minimum of 50% overall marks or A level (with 3 Cs). However, for Engineering, Medical and Pharmacy programs students must have studied Physics, Chemistry and Math/Bio with a minimum of 60% marks.
- Students awaiting results of Intermediate or A Level Examinations are awarded provisional admission for one semester.
- Students with provisional admission are required to meet minimum entry requirement for the respective degree program by passing their previous qualification in order to continue studies.
- It is the student’s responsibility to ensure that they pass the previous qualification exam and change their status from ‘Provisional’ to ‘Regular’.
- Students of engineering program are required to take an entry test as advised by PEC. There is no entry test for all other programs.
- An interview of every student is conducted before grant of admission.
