Faculty of Civil Engineering
Introduction
Civil Engineering is one of the oldest and most important engineering discip lines. It is a versatile profession that aims to make the natural and built environment work together to improve the quality of human lives. As influential figures in every modern society, Civil Engineers are in charge of designing constructing, and maintaining roads, buildings, bridges, dams, water supply systems, sewer networks, and more. The Faculty of Civil Engineering of the Babol Noshirvani University of Technology offers B.Sc., M.Sc., and Ph.D. degrees in Civil Engineering. At any time, there are approximately 1000 civil engineering majors studying in the faculty of Civil Engineering, who are taught by our 40 faculty members.

Undergraduate Program

Graduate Program

Faculty of Civil Engineering at Babol Noshirvani University of Technology offers undergraduate degree programs in three major fields: 1) Civil Engineering, which is the largest and the oldest program: 2) Surveying Engineering; 3) Architectural Engineering. To become area creative solvers of infrastructure challenges in the modern world, students of Civil Engineering take a diverse set of courses in structural design, geotechnical analysis, transportation systems, materials science, construction practices, environmental solutions, and water resources development. Architectural Engineering students seek to become experts in the technical aspects of architecture, including the structural integrity of buildings and the comfort and health of building occupants. On the other hand, students of Surveying Engineering are trained to develop and operate systems for collecting and analyzing spatial information about the land, the oceans, natural resources, and man-made features. Students in all three fields need to pass 140 credit hours, which typically takes 4 years, before graduation.

At BNUT, a variety of graduate degree programs are offered in both M.Sc. and Ph.D. levels. Graduate students of Civil Engineering may choose among the eight major fields of 1) Structural Engineering: 2) Earthquake Engineering; 3) Geotechnical Engineering; 4) Highway and Transportation Engineering: 5) Marine Structures Engineering; 6) Hydraulic Structures Engineering; 7) Environmental Engineering; and 8) Construction Management. A master's degree program is also offered in Photogrammetry for the graduates of Surveying Engineering.) Completing a master's degree program requires taking a minimum of 26 credit hours as well as completing a master's research thesis that is equivalent to 6 additional credit hours. Ph.D. students take 12 credit hours of courses as a minimum and complete a research thesis equivalent to 24 credit hours before they graduate. Our M.Sc. and Ph.D. programs typically take 2 and 4 years, respectively.

Our forward-looking faculty members choose research topics for our highest quality graduate students not only to address the most pressing needs of the modern infrastructure in the national and global scales but also to develop future leaders who can creatively investigate and resolve the potential challenges of the society in the future.
