BA/BS in Bauingenieurwesen

Civil Engineering is a Bachelor of Science at Ruhr-Universität Bochum that gives a broad university-level education in the field. It uses modern scientific methods, keeps a link to practice and covers topics that look ahead. The programme addresses how bridges, buildings and industrial structures are designed and built efficiently, how virtual and augmented reality are used in construction, how wastewater can serve as an energy source, and how dams and flood defences are planned. It also deals with road maintenance and traffic noise. Applicants should have a university entrance qualification, basic skills in science and technology, and a high degree of independence. A preparatory course in mathematics starts in September, and a pre-study internship must be proven before the thesis is registered. Further details on enrolment are available separately for German and international applicants, and the semester contribution is explained on a dedicated university page. Students can turn to the study advisory service of the department with questions about content and admission.
