BS Civil and Environmental Engineering

Civil and environmental engineering involves more than just performing structural analysis for detached houses. Civil and environmental engineers are in demand wherever smart solutions are required for structural work that also take environmental protection into account. This could be a landfill site that is to be created without endangering groundwater. Or an underground railway line that passes beneath a listed church. Or a dyke that is to be constructed based on computer-aided flood forecasts. Civil and environmental engineers plan and design, construct and programme, calculate and shape our structural environment. In the process, they must increasingly take into account conflicts between environmental protection and economic concerns, find interdisciplinary solutions and assess the applicability and effects of new technologies. In order to prepare graduates for these extensive requirements, Leibniz Universit t Hannover offers an exceptionally wide range of courses on its Civil and Environmental Engineering programme. Students on this Bachelor's degree programme acquire both mathematical/scientific and specialist foundations. At the same time, they have the opportunity to specialise to suit their interests and strengths, enabling them to prepare for a Master's degree programme in Structural Engineering; Water Management, Environmental and Coastal Engineering; Computational Methods in Engineering; or Wind Energy Engineering.
