Department of Construction Engineering

Specializing in Civil Engineering
Building up our society while being kind to the environment.
photo photo
Environmental Civil Engineering involves the design of dams, tunnels, bridges, railways, underground systems, airports, ports, waterways, urban space design and more. In recent years we have begun to think more and more about the damage caused by earthquakes, tsunamis, flooding, landslides, water pollution, global warming and other such problems. We seek to develop technologies that will protect the environment while at the same time allowing people to live in safety and comfort. In our department students may choose from three courses. On the Societal Foundation course students learn the basic skills of civil engineering. On the Urban Design course students learn about regional planning and landscaping techniques. On the Environment and Disaster Prevention course students learn about disaster prevention techniques and environmental protection.
We seek the following kinds of people
to take part in our courses:
  1. People who have a deep interest in, and an awareness of, the issuesrelated to environmental civil engineering, the foundations of society, the societal environment, the natural environment and disaster prevention
  2. People who have a strong thirst for knowledge, willing to become environmental civil engineers who will make active use of their knowledge and skills
