Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering

Civil engineering is a professional discipline concerned with the design, analysis, construction and maintenance of both physically and naturally built environment. As part of the vision and mission of the University of Perpetual Help System DALTA, the Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering Program aims to produce technically proficient and ethically minded engineering graduates who will help build a resilient and sustainable community. The program has five major tracks in line with those of its professional counterpart, the Philippine Institute of Civil Engineers. These are construction engineering and management, geotechnical engineering, structural engineering, water resources engineering, and transportation engineering, all of which provide both depth and breadth of knowledge onto its students.

Program Educational Objectives (PEO)

The program educational objectives of the Civil Engineering Program of the College of Engineering, Architecture and Technology (CEAT) of the University of Perpetual Help System DALTA represent the expected characteristics and/or accomplishments of our Civil Engineering graduates.

Within 3 to 5 years after graduation, our Civil Engineering graduate

PEO 1.    Demonstrates high level technical competence in civil engineering or in any specialized or related field of civil engineering

PEO 2.    Exhibits growing professional career in civil engineering practice and research

PEO 3.    Pursues engineering and technical activities relevant to the needs of the industry and the community

Student Outcomes (SO)

The student outcomes are statements that describe what students are expected to know and do by the time they graduate. These student outcomes relate to the skills, knowledge, and behaviors that students acquire in their matriculation through the program. The Student Outcomes of the Civil Engineering Program are the following:

SO (a) – Apply knowledge of mathematics, natural science, engineering fundamentals, civil engineering principles to the solution of complex engineering problems
SO (b) – Conduct investigations of complex engineering problem using research-based knowledge and research methods including design of experiments, analysis and interpretation of data and synthesis of information to provide valid conclusion
SO (c) – Design solutions for complex engineering problems and design systems, components or processes that meet specified needs with appropriate consideration for public health and safety, cultural, societal, and environmental considerations.
SO (d) – Function effectively as an individual, and as a member or leader in diverse teams and in multi-disciplinary settings
SO (e) – Identify, formulate, research literature and analyze complex engineering problems reaching substantiated conclusions using first principles of mathematics, natural sciences and engineering sciences
SO (f) – Apply ethical principles and commit to professional ethics and responsibilities and norms of engineering practice
SO (g) – Communicate effectively on complex engineering activities with the engineering community and with society at large, such as being able to comprehend and with effective reports and design documentation, make effective presentations and give and receive clear instructions
SO (h) – Understand and evaluate the sustainability and impact of professional engineering work in the solution of complex engineering problems in societal and environmental context
SO (i) – Recognize the need for and have the preparation and ability to engage in independent and life-long learning in the broadest context of technological change
SO (j) – Apply reasoning informed by contextual knowledge to assess societal, health, safety, legal and cultural issues and the consequent responsibilities relevant to professional engineering practice and solutions to complex engineering problems
SO (k) – Create, select and apply appropriate techniques, resources and modern engineering and IT tools, including prediction and modeling to complex engineering problems with an understanding of the limitations
SO (l) – Demonstrate knowledge and understanding of engineering management principles and economic decision making and apply these to one’s own work as a member and leader in a team, to manage projects and in multidisciplinary environments
SO (m) – Understand at least one specialized field of civil engineering practice
