Diploma in Civil Engineering

The Civil Engineering Discipline expects its alumni, who after being involved in the industry or academia for at least 4 years,

PEO1 To undertake positions of technical related expertise in civil engineering fields

PEO2 To remain committed to professional development

The Civil Engineering Discipline has adopted a set of 12 Programme Outcomes (PO), which upon sucessful completion of the programme, graduates will be able to:

PO1

Knowledge - Apply knowledge of applied mathematics, applied science, engineering fundamentals and an engineering specialisation as specified in DK1 to DK4 respectively to wide practical procedures and practices

PO2

Problem analysis - Identify and analyse well-defined engineering problems reaching substantiated conclusions using codified methods of analysis specific to their field of activity (DK1 to DK4)

PO3

Design/development of solutions - Design solutions for well-defined technical problems and assist with the design of systems, components or processes to meet specified needs with appropriate consideration for public health and safety, cultural, societal, and environmental considerations (DK5)

PO4

Investigation - Conduct investigations of well-defined problems; locate and search relevant codes and catalogues, conduct standard tests and measurements

PO5

Modern Tool Usage - Apply appropriate techniques, resources and modern engineering and IT tools to well-defined engineering problems, with an awareness of the limitations (DK6)

PO6

The Engineer and Society - Demonstrate knowledge of the societal, health, safety, legal and cultural issues and the consequent responsibilities relevant to engineering technician practice and solutions to well-defined engineering problems (DK7)

PO7
