Civil engineering is a professional engineering discipline that deals with the design, construction, and maintenance of the physical and naturally built environment, including works like roads, bridges, canals, dams, and buildings. Civil engineering is traditionally broken into a number of sub-disciplines. It is the second-oldest engineering discipline after military engineering, and it is defined to distinguish non-military engineering from military engineering. Civil engineering takes place in the public sector from municipal through to national governments, and in the private sector from individual homeowners through to international companies.

Because civil engineering is a wide-ranging profession, including several specialized sub-disciplines, its history is linked to knowledge of structures, materials science, geography, geology, soils, hydrology, environment, mechanics and other fields.

Civil engineers typically possess an academic degree in civil engineering. The length of study is three to five years, and the completed degree is designated as a bachelor of engineering, or a bachelor of science in engineering. The curriculum generally includes classes in physics, mathematics, project management, design and specific topics in civil engineering. After taking basic courses in most sub-disciplines of civil engineering, they move onto specialize in one or more sub-disciplines at advanced levels. While an undergraduate degree (BEng/BSc) normally provides successful students with industry-accredited qualification, some academic institutions offer post-graduate degrees (MEng/MSc), which allow students to further specialize in their particular area of interest.

Training objectives: This program aims to cultivate students who adapt to the development of socialist modernization, achieve overall development in moral, intellectual and physical aspects, and acquire necessary cultural knowledge of humanities, social science and natural sciences as well as expertise in civil engineering. Through basis trainings from engineers, this program cultivates applied and skilled talents who are capable of technology and management for housing construction and other class civil engineering, obtain solid basic theoretical knowledge, extensive expertise, strong problem analysis capabilities, engineering practice and innovative ability, as well as face the future and first-line engineering.
Main courses: Theoretical Mechanics, Mechanics of Materials, Structural Mechanics, Soil Mechanics, Civil Engineering Materials, Introduction to Civil Engineering, Engineering Geology, Descriptive Geometry and Engineering Drawing, Engineering Surveying, Construction Laws and Regulations, Loading and Structural Design Methods, Design Principle of Concrete Structures, Design Principle of Steel Structure, Basic Engineering, Civil Engineering Construction, Building Architecture, High-rise Building Structure Design, Engineering Seismic Design, High-rise Building Construction, Construction Organization and Construction Project Management, and Engineering Technology Analysis and Cost Estimation, etc.

After graduation, the graduant can chose to pursue masters degree in any related course to further enhance their chances of getting a good career. Even without pursuing a masters degree, there are so many jobs opportunitie that a graduate can apply for. Some of them are; transportation engineer, civil project engineer, traffic engineer, project management engineer and so many others.

To directly inquire about your application status, feel free to send us an email to admission@acasc.cn and our team will keep you updated.

• Question: How to deal with a pending application?

Answer: When an application is pending a decision it means that your school has received it and no admissions decision has been made yet. The admissions office may have reviewed your application package or may not have.

The main cause of a pending application is usually incomplete application documents. As a result you will be requested by the school’s admission office to re-check and modify all submitted application documents or perhaps even add extra documents and then re-submit them.

To avoid further delays, carefully read the university’s comments, modify your application form on ACASC, and re-upload the required application documents. You can contact ACASC on admission@acasc.cn for any help with regards to your pending application

• How long does it take to process my application?

Processing time varies for different applications. For example to process a degree program application requires more time than a Chinese language application. Confirmation for Chinese language application by the admission office usually takes 2 to 4 weeks. However, time for degree programs application differs. For example fall semester application processing is after March, and it takes a period of 1 to 2 months. This also depends on your qualification and the number of applicants.
