1.Program Mission:
The mission of the Construction and Building Engineering program is to prepare graduates who
specialize in Construction engineering and management of construction projects, who are able to
compete in Egyptian as well as in regional and international labor markets, by virtue of their acquired
knowledge, skills, professionalism and ethics.
Thus, the program mission could be defined as:
PM1. Equip students with a systematic knowledge and understanding of mathematics and
engineering science relevant to structural, construction and environmental
engineering.
PM2. Provide student with detailed knowledge and understanding of scientific principles
relevant to construction and management of the construction projects .
PM3. Develop the analytical and practical skills appropriate for designing an integrated
structures that meets its design requirements, environment needs and sustainability.
PM4. Provide students with skills required to measure construction processes states to be able to assess project’s performance and decide appropriate corrective control actions to be taken.
PM5. Produce graduates that manage their learning and undertake continuing professional
development..
