النشأة والتطور،

إن الهندسة المدنية هي إحدى التخصصات التي تعني بالبنية التحتية للمجتمعات المدنية وتطويرها بالاتجاه الذي يفي بمتطلبات النهضة الاقتصادية الاجتماعية والثقافية. فالمهندس المدني معني بتصميم وانشاء المباني بمختلف أنواعها فضلاً عن السدود والجسور والطرقات والمطارات وشبكات المياه والري والصرف الصحي.

تأسس قسم الهندسة المدنية عام 1976م (المعهد الفني العالي) وبعد تأسيس كلية التكنولوجيا تخرجت أول دفعة من الكلية في عام 1981م من حملة شهادة الإجازة الخاصة.  ويهدف القسم الى إعداد المهندس المتخصص في مجال الهندسة المدنية القادر على استخدام المعارف العلمية الهندسية في مجالاتها المختلفة وما يستجد في مجال التخصص من تطورات وتقنيات.
إن شمولية هذا التخصص ومرونته يفتح المجال واسعاً أمام خريجي هذا القسم لإيجاد فرص العمل المناسبة والتي تتماشى مع رغباته ومجالات إبداعاته في المؤسسات الحكومية وغير الحكومية.

                                                                                                                                                           

المختبرات

 

من المعروف بان كلية الهندسة من الكليات التطبيقية التي تحتاج الى تمويل ودعم مستمرين في تسيير العملية التدريسية بالكلية وذلك في تخريج مهندسين مسلحين في مهنتهم بالجوانب النظرية والتطبيقية. ان استكمال الجانب النظري مرهونا باستكمال الجانب التطبيقي لذا تعتبر المختبرات والورش الجانب الحيوي الهام والمكمل للعملية التدريسية بالكلية. يتدرب فيها الطلاب وتضيف الى مداركهم وتوسع مفهومهم النظري الهندسي.

لدى القسم الهندسة المدنية المختبرات التالية:-

1)  مختبر الهندسة المدنية العام

2)  مختبر المساحة

3)  مختبر الهندسة البيئية
