    About

    Program details

    Expected duration: 4 years

    Tuition and fees: Two years tuition, then continuing fees in subsequent years (refer to Graduate tuition and fees)

    The objective of the PhD program is to provide students with specialized knowledge in their chosen areas and to prepare them for careers in academia and research. The Phd must contribute to the creation of knowledge in the major field of study. Each PhD candidate must demonstrate competence to complete a significant research project and present their findings. The material must be at a level that is acceptable for publication.

    The PhD program consists of coursework, original research and thesis. Normally, 12 credit hours of coursework (all at the 7000 level) are required beyond the master's degree or its equivalent. The minimum time requirement is two calendar years of full-time study and research, of which at least one academic year must be spent on campus. For research projects conducted off-campus, the student must be geographically near to the campus and visit it regularly.

    Research areas

    While collaboration between different research areas, departments and faculties is encouraged, our department has been broken down into seven main areas:

    • Environmental
    • Geotechnical
    • Structures
    • Transportation
    • Water Resources
    • Construction Engineering and Management
    • Masonry and Cementitious Materials
    Our advanced training in Civil Engineering empowers graduates to contribute to the economic and social betterment of our society through sustainable design. Whether it's the roads we drive on, the safe water we drink, the buildings we live and work in, or the rivers and lakes we enjoy, civil engineers impact many areas of our lives.
