What do you mainly study in civil engineering?
Civil engineering is the general name of science and technology for building various engineering facilities. Refers to the application of materials, equipment and technical activities such as survey, design, construction and maintenance; It also refers to the object of engineering construction, that is, all kinds of engineering facilities built on the ground or underground, on land or in water, which directly or indirectly serve human life, production, military affairs and scientific research, such as houses, roads, railways, transportation pipelines, tunnels, bridges, canals, dams, ports, power stations, airports, offshore platforms, water supply and drainage, protection projects, etc. The material basis of engineering facilities construction is land, building materials, building equipment and construction machinery. With the help of these material conditions, it is the starting point and destination of civil engineering to economically and conveniently build engineering facilities that can not only meet people's use requirements and aesthetic requirements, but also safely withstand various loads. Training objectives: this major trains students to have solid basic knowledge of natural science such as mathematics, physics, chemistry and computer technology, and master the basic theories and knowledge of engineering mechanics, fluid mechanics and geotechnical mechanics; Master the basic knowledge and methods of engineering planning and selection, engineering materials, engineering survey, descriptive geometry and engineering drawing, structural analysis and design, basic engineering and foundation treatment, modern construction technology of civil engineering, engineering inspection and test. Understand the basic principles and methods of engineering disaster prevention and mitigation, as well as the basic knowledge of construction equipment and civil engineering machinery. Have the ability to comprehensively use various means to query and obtain information; Having the ability to conduct civil engineering survey and design economically, reasonably, safely and reliably; Have the preliminary ability to solve construction technical problems, prepare construction organization design, carry out project management and engineering economic analysis; Have the preliminary ability to carry out engineering inspection and reliability evaluation of engineering quality; Have the preliminary ability to apply computer to aided design and management; Have the initial ability to engage in scientific research, technological innovation and technological development in the field of civil engineering. Become a senior engineer who can engage in technical or management work in the design, construction, management, consultation, supervision, research, education, investment and development departments of housing construction, tunnels and underground buildings, highways and urban roads and bridges. Main courses: engineering mathematics, civil engineering survey, civil engineering materials, descriptive geometry and engineering drawing, material mechanics, structural mechanics, elasticity mechanics, fluid mechanics, soil mechanics, concrete structure design principles, steel structure design principles, bridge engineering, road survey and design, subgrade and pavement engineering, civil engineering construction and organization, civil engineering professional English, etc. Graduation destination: I can engage in technical and management work in the construction functional departments of government agencies, infrastructure management departments of government agencies, industrial and mining enterprises and institutions, architectural and municipal engineering design institutes, civil engineering research institutes, construction enterprises such as buildings, highways and bridges, engineering quality supervision stations, engineering construction supervision departments, real estate companies, engineering cost consulting institutions, banks and investment consulting institutions; Or you can get a master's degree in structural engineering, disaster prevention and mitigation and protection engineering, road and railway engineering, bridge and tunnel engineering, geotechnical engineering, engineering mechanics and other disciplines; Or obtain the qualifications of registered structural engineer, registered architect, registered civil engineer, registered supervision engineer and registered cost engineer in accordance with the relevant provisions of the state.
