| The Civil Engineering Program aims to produce graduates with sufficient fundamental knowledge in broad fields, and at the same time with strong knowledge in a specific area. This will enable graduates to serve the industrial sectors in Thailand where the need for specialists is increasing day by day. In this curriculum, two main areas of study are provided for selection. They are 1) general civil engineering, and 2) infrastructure engineering.
The general civil engineering option gives emphasis to various major fields of civil engineering, which include
1) structural engineering, 2) concrete engineering, 3) soil and foundation engineering, 4) water resources engineering, and 5) transportation engineering.
The infrastructure engineering option, though still concentrating on the above major fields, puts more emphasis on knowledge related to infrastructure.
The total credits for major engineering subjects in both options are uniformly distributed to all five major fields, except for the field of structural engineering which has a slightly larger number of credits. For students in the infrastructure engineering option, a few major courses provided in the general civil engineering option are replaced by courses related to the infrastructure engineering field.
Further specialization can be achieved through the elective courses and the project. A practical training course is also provided to let students have a chance to practice civil engineering during their studies. In the practical training course, students will be placed in organizations that are related to their specialty in order to provide them with some practical experiences in their specialized field. In this curriculum, it is possible for students to study their elective courses at other universities, including foreign universities, as exchange students during the final semester. With special arrangements, it will also be possible for students to have thorough practical training during the final semester.
