Tech program in Civil Engineering with specialization in Ocean Engineering

Objectives

To build quality manpower that can efficiently handle planning, analysis and design of engineering infrastructure at the coast as well as in the open ocean and also look after their construction, management and operation. To create individuals with strong fundamentals in ocean technology - having high problem solving skills. To create future leaders of ocean industries, policy planners and administrators of ocean infrastructure.
Scope The curriculum will expose the students particularly to the study of coastal and ocean infrastructure including port, dock and harbor structures, coastal protection works and offshore oil platforms, navigation. Included in the course works are the latest concerns on ocean environment, changing coastal laws and sea policies.
