Civil Engineering

The Civil Engineering program is recognized as a provincial-level first-class program, an emerging specialty program for ordinary undergraduate institutions during the "13th Five-Year Plan," a key program at the College level, and a pilot program for applied development. It offers several provincial-level first-class courses and has an innovative teaching team in Civil Engineering in Wenzhou. The program includes three specializations: Building Engineering, Transportation Civil Engineering, and Engineering Cost.

The program targets the forefront of international civil engineering academia and aligns with national and regional strategic needs. It focuses on four key areas: underground space development technologies, full lifecycle engineering structure operation and maintenance technologies, critical technologies for lifeline engineering safety, and low-carbon artificial environment creation technologies. The program also emphasizes interdisciplinary research integrating civil engineering with smart manufacturing, artificial intelligence, and the Internet of Things, aiming to develop a multidisciplinary research model. It seeks to provide robust theoretical and technical support for pioneering technologies, disruptive innovations, and critical advancements in emerging fields such as smart cities, resilient cities, and intelligent construction and equipment.

Training Direction:

The program aligns with industry development trends and national and local economic needs, creating a comprehensive theoretical and practical teaching system. It aims to cultivate professionals who meet the needs of construction and economic development, possessing solid foundational theories, broad professional knowledge, strong practical and innovative capabilities, and basic training for becoming registered engineers. Graduates are prepared to undertake various tasks in civil engineering projects, including design, construction, management, research, investment, and development, across building, road, bridge, geotechnical, and underground engineering fields. They are trained to be high-level application-oriented talents with strong engineering qualities, innovative awareness, practical abilities, sustainable development potential, and a certain international perspective.
