The role of the civil engineer in society: engineering ethics and major projects Introduction A call was made by Prince Charles in his sustainability lecture (NCE‚ 2012) to revisit the definition of civil engineering especially as he saw the profession playing a crucial (quyet dinh‚ chu yeu) role in tackling future challenges such as climate change. It is now timely for professional civil engineers to not be afraid to say what they really think to government‚ clients and employers. The Profession

COE001 / 10:30-11:30 July 21‚ 2014 What is the importance of Civil Engineering? According to my research‚ civil engineering started between 4000 - 2000 BC in Ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia. When humans decided to build their permanent houses‚ the construction of shelter began. Therefore‚ civil engineering considered as one of the oldest field in engineering and is the broadest of the all engineering professions. Civil engineer works to enhance the infrastructures around us like roads‚ sewage

GEOLOGY & CIVIL ENGINEERING As living creatures‚ the importance of understanding the earth we live in is paramount for our survival and development. Geology is the “scientific study of the origin‚ history and structure of the earth”. It involves understanding earth’s processes‚ materials and its effects on all forms of life. From earth elements such as rocks and mountains to natural phenomenon such as volcanoes and earthquakes‚ the field of geology encompasses a wide range of concepts fundamental

Engineering Disaster Civil Engineers build significant structures that can last more than a century‚ some of these structures such as Burj Khalifa‚ pyramids and evil towers in France can be considered as landmarks‚ because of its history and its beauty of design. Civil Engineers study the four factors of building structures to determine which tools and materials they will use in order to build permanent structures. Although engineers studying the factors and take the determination‚ there is some

Historically‚ Civil Engineering is the oldest branch of engineering and dates back at least 5‚000 years to the profession of "master builder" involving pyramids‚ temples and irrigation projects. Engineering has changed greatly since those days but the fundamental principles have stayed the same. Engineers solve peoples problems with applied science and innovation. Today’s problems are more complex and the needs of current and future societies have created challenges for engineering unparalleled
