Study programmes within CEM department

Learn to design, construct and maintain our natural and built environment in a way that is futureproof and sustainable. Become a Civil Hero:

Civil engineers play a crucial role in shaping our world and society. In fact, it is hard to imagine a world without them. Infrastructures, buildings, water resources, coastal protection: our environment would look entirely different if it weren’t for civil engineers. What does it take to design, construct, and maintain the natural and physically built environment in a way that is futureproof and sustainable? For example, how can we protect ourselves against rising sea levels? Are there smarter ways to perform maintenance on bridges to lower the risk of failure? And what infrastructure improvements are needed for the wider adoption of electric vehicles? Civil Engineering study programmes at BSc and MSc level at the University of Twente will help you to create solutions to many complex challenges related to construction and infrastructure, sustainability, resilience, water management, and traffic and transport.

The CEM department is involved in teaching activities for the following study programmes
