HISTORY AND PHILOSOPHY
The
Department of Civil Engineering was established in October, 1990,
with the initial objective to train first degree students to be qualified
in various fields of Civil Engineering
who would serve in public and private sectors of our economy.
This
was done to meet the need for qualified specialists in both the construction
industry and in institutions of
higher learning. The department
started with a population of one staff and seven students.
Presently, the department has seven academic and five non-academic
staff and a total of 206 students in population.
Further more, the admission number has been fixed between 40
and 50 annually based on the staff strength and availability of facilities. It is also the outmost desire of the department
to produce self reliant engineers
to help cut down on job scarcity. The vision of the department is to create the
best well equipped Civil Engineering set-up in the country so as to
attract even the foreign based professionals to help train quality
and prosperous engineers.
