Dundalk Institute of Technology’s Bachelor of Engineering in Civil Engineering emphasises civil engineering design and practice. Students study topics including Fluid Mechanics, Highway Engineering, Structural Mechanics, and CAD, along with civil engineering drawing and detailing, materials specification and testing, surveying and setting out, and computer-aided analysis, design, and draughting.
The course covers civil engineering works across investigation, planning, design, construction, operation, and maintenance. It is full-time and delivered on campus over 3 Years. Students complete a group design project (Project 1 - Group Design Project) and an individual project (Project 2 - Individual Project). Work placement is No.
DkIT states that the course is designed to build knowledge, know-how skill, and competence, and to prepare students for the role of the civil engineering technologist. DkIT also states that the course has Engineers Ireland accreditation to Associate Engineer level, A.Eng., and lists future careers including consulting civil engineer, contracting civil engineer, estimator, structural engineer, and water engineer.
