Check if you qualify

Civil engineering is one of the oldest and broadest engineering fields, dealing with the design, construction and maintenance of the physical world around us. At KAAF University College, this degree sits in the Faculty of Engineering & Computer Science and is less competitive to enter than similar programmes at some other universities. If you enjoy maths, physics and building things that last, this could be the right path for you.

What a civil engineering degree covers

A civil engineering degree typically covers structures, materials, geotechnics, hydraulics, transportation and construction management. You learn to design roads, bridges, buildings, water supply systems and other infrastructure that people rely on every day. The programme builds problem-solving skills, project planning and the ability to work in teams, which are useful in many fields beyond engineering itself.

How hard it is to get a place

At KAAF University College, this programme is less competitive to get into than the same programme at institutions like KNUST, where it is highly competitive. This makes KAAF a practical choice if you want to study civil engineering but are worried about stiff competition elsewhere. As with any degree, your admission depends on your grades and meeting the programme's subject requirements, which you can confirm with the admissions office.
