Engineering the built environment
Civil Engineering is a professional engineering discipline that deals with design, construction and maintenance of man-made and naturally built environment, including but not limited to, construction of airports, buildings, bridges, canals, roads, railways, tunnels, water supply, water distribution, water resources management and sewerage & sewage treatment.
We at INU focus on interaction between the built environment and the natural world and recognize that civil engineering is crucial to meet the major challenges faced by our society; including climate change, economy recovery, growing population and urbanization, conservation of natural resources, development of renewable energy, suitable transport, environmental quality and infrastructure ageing and resilience.
Civil Engineering School was established in 2010. The School is accredited as per PEC's OBE based learning module under level 2 Washington Accord. The ever evolving undergraduate program in civil engineering aims towards ingraining leadership skills, a strong sense of professionalism and ethical responsibilities in the future engineers, and prepare them to engage in lifelong eruditeness. Our school is affiliated with the prestigious Pakistan Engineering Council (PEC).
Vision
The School of Civil Engineering will excel in undergraduate instruction and graduate instruction in conformity with HEC and PEC in training, research and design in all sub-areas of civil engineering and in service to the public, consistent with the mission of the University. Advancing the mechanics of civil and structural engineering systems within the broader context of design, construction and operation of sustainable infrastructure and the geology of earth's resources and environment.
Mission
The mission of the School of Civil Engineering is to educate, inside and outside the classroom & to provide service to the university, engineering profession, and the public. To offer undergraduate & postgraduate degree programs in the breadth, width and depth areas of infrastructure and construction engineering proficiencies. A stringent grounding in fundamentals using mathematics and engineering principles as a tool to support understanding and develop new concepts, employing fundamental mechanics, incorporating uncertainty, and channelizing the conflicting objectives inherent in successful civil engineering research and design.

Education beyond the classroom
It is my privilege to welcome you to the School of Civil Engineering. Civil Engineering is a vital discipline that contributes significantly to infrastructure development, economic growth, and societal well-being. Our School is committed to producing competent engineers equipped with the knowledge, skills, and professional ethics required to meet modern engineering challenges.
At our School, education goes beyond the classroom. We strongly emphasize practical learning by providing field exposure through industrial linkages, site visits, internships, and collaboration with industry professionals. This approach enables our students to bridge the gap between theoretical concepts and real-world engineering practices.
