Program Description
Civil Engineering
Bachelor
The Department of Civil Engineering (CE) at Al Ahliyya Amman University was established in September 2008 to meet the market demand for qualified civil engineers both locally and regionally. The first (44 students) were admitted in the second semester of the academic year 2008/2009. Since then, an increasing number of students is enrolled in the department every year. Our efforts are focused on providing students with the necessary knowledge and experience that enable them to compete in the labor market of the 21st century. More than, 554 civil engineers have graduated from the department and are serving their communities by working in private corporations or local governments.
The department has highly qualified and experienced full-time faculty members consisting of 3 professors, 4 associate professors, 7 assistant professors, and 4 lecturers, in addition to 7 laboratory engineers and one technician. The Department of Civil Engineering has a range of well-equipped laboratories including concrete materials, pavement, hydraulics, environmental, surveying and geotechnical.
The department has established a system that conforms to the highest academic standards. In this context, we constantly think about the future and update our B.Sc. program to meet the needs of the market.
The recent accreditation effort was successful and the Civil Engineering Department has been accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission (EAC) of ABET in 2021.
