Civil Engineering

... looks into questions such as ...

 
  • How is civil engineering actually defined?
  • Which buildings have to be designed and constructed?
  • Which building materials can be reasonably used in the field of civil engineering?
  • How does one build roads and ways?
  • What happens with water and the environment?
  • The thing I enjoy most is that it’s possible to apply everything I learn in my classes to the world around me.
