Bachelor of Science in Civil & Environmental
Engineering .
The B.Sc. Civil & Environmental
Engineering is a five year degree programme designed such
that graduate candidates acquire sufficient knowledge and
skills in construction technologies, Environmental &
hygienic technologies, building materials, water supply
engineering, structural design for concrete and steel, and
maintenance & repair management, that would enable them
take up general civil & environmental engineering jobs
in construction industry upon graduating. At least two years
industrial experience is sufficient for the graduates to
register as professional engineers. In general, graduates
acquire knowledge and understanding, intellectual, practical
and transferable skills necessary for the analysis and synthesis
of civil & environmental engineering problems through
a combination of lectures, practical experiments, project
research, case studies, and industrial practical training.
Admission Requirements
For admission into the Civil l Engineering and Environmental Technology degree programme, a minimum of two principal passes in Mathematics and Physics at Secondary School Advanced level is needed from any of the A-level combination
Government sponsored students are selected by the Rwanda
National Examinations Council. Privately sponsored students
should apply directly to the Institute's office of the Registrar
