In accordance with the pertinent provisions of Republic Act (RA) No. 7722, otherwise
known as the Higher Education Act of 1994, upon the recommendation of the Technical
Panel for Engineering, Technology and Architecture and by virtue of Resolution No. 840-
2006 of the Commission on Higher Education dated December 4, 2006, for the purpose of
rationalizing the undergraduate program in Civil Engineering with the end view of keeping
apace with the demands of global competitiveness, the following policies and standards are
hereby adopted and promulgated by the Commission, thus:
ARTICLE I -INTRODUCTION
The herein Policies and Standards (PS ) have been reviewed in accordance
with recent approved CMOs, industry needs, latest trends and technology in
the field of civil engineering. This PS emerged as a result of consolidated
effort of the academe, industry and other concerned agencies.
The career paths available to civil engineers are many and varied and
can involve a wide range of activities, tools, situations, and venues; from
conceptual design of facilities that do not yet exist to forensic study of
facilities that have failed to perform as expected; from advanced
simulation of complex systems to the management of people and
projects; and from private consulting to public service. A civil engineer
must be prepared for a career that traverses this considerable
professional breadth as well as for a career focused on a single
professional activity. The BSCE curriculum is designed specifically to
meet this educational challenge by emphasizing fundamental knowledge,
transferable skills, and lifelong learning.
Section 6. This section defines the entry level competency standards, knowledge,
attitudes, values and skills applicable to the BS Civil Engineering graduate,
which are contained in ANNEX I of this Memorandum.
ARTICLE V - CURRICULUM
To ensure that the civil engineering graduates are articulate and understands the
nature of their special role in society and the impact of their work on the progress of
civilization, the BSCE curriculum is based on a set of desired competencies which
are enumerated in Section 6. The curriculum contains 26 units of mathematics, 12
units of natural/ physical sciences and 39 units of languages, social sciences and
humanities courses. To guarantee an extensive knowledge of the civil engineering
disciplines, the curriculum also contains 21 units of basic engineering and 6 units of
allied courses. It also contains 82 units of secondary and primary areas of
specialization to ensure depth and focus in certain discipline.
