Civil and Environmental Engineering at Duke

Youtube video The Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering is pursuing diverse research and educational activities to improve the fundamental health and safety of society. These activities occur across three focus areas: Materials, Structures and Geo-systems; Hydrology and Fluid Dynamics; and Chemical and Biological Processes.

Students develop skills in engineering analysis, design, technical communication, and teamwork, while pursuing knowledge in engineered and natural materials, structures, transport phenomena, water resources, hydrology, fluid dynamics and chemical and biological processes for waste treatment and water purification. In addition to conducting innovative research, students in the department also have the ability to apply that academic preparation to assist in improving the constructed and natural environments in which we live.
