Description
Strong bridges, stable tunnels and tall structures that can withstand storms, snow loads and earthquakes require reliable calculations and data. Civil engineers do this: they know exactly how to build the tallest buildings so that they stand safely, face the challenges that a construction site brings, search for new materials that are resistant, environmentally friendly and durable, they bend glass and print steel, build roads and stadiums and coordinate all the necessary processes. And thus build our environment a little better every day. The Bachelor's degree programme in Civil Engineering and Geodesy offers you a broad, practice-oriented and scientific foundation. There are two specialisations to choose from: Civil Engineering and Geodesy. Both specialisations build on solid engineering fundamentals, but offer different areas of in-depth study and specialisation.

The programme (180 credit points/CP) is made up of the following main components:
Compulsory engineering area (91 CP):
In the first semesters, you will learn all the scientific and technical basics that form the foundation for both specialisations and that you will need for your further studies.
Depending on your chosen specialisation, the CPs are distributed as follows:
Civil Engineering specialisation:
· Subject-related compulsory area: 47 CP
· Subject-related elective area: 24 CP
· General elective area: 6 CP
· Bachelor's thesis: 12 CP
Geodesy specialisation:
· Subject-related compulsory area: 45 CP
· Subject-related elective area: 21 CP
· General elective area: 11 CP
· Bachelor's thesis: 12 CP
Specialisation options and elective areas: The specialised elective area allows you to select modules according to your personal interests and professional goals. In the general elective area, you can take modules from other subject areas to develop an individual profile.
