Academic Departments

The Civil Engineering industry is an essential prerequisite for the socio-economic advancement of a developing country such as Ghana. As such, personnel in this industry need to identify with apt principles, practical skills, and knowledge, given that health, safety, aesthetics, and ergonomics are critical in the industry. The Department of Civil Engineering is one of the Academic Departments of the Faculty of Engineering, established in the 2006/2007 academic year, as the fifth accredited programme of the University. The mandate is to offer hands-on world- class training of management and supervisory personnel to provide the needed supervisory role to link theory and practice to support planning, design, construction, operation and maintenance of systems to maintain and improve industrialisation and socio-economic advancement of Ghana.
