Programs - MS Civil Engineering

Program Scope:

Infrastructure and energy serves as the backbone for progress and economic development of a country. Pakistan is gifted with abundant water resources by the Almighty ALLAH.  The most economical renewal energy is linked with hydro-power which requires dams. The progress of Infrastructure and Energy depends on Transportation, Structural, Water Resources and Geotechnical engineering. To avoid hiring foreign experts for the above fields of civil engineering it is inevitable to upgrade the level of our engineers. Keeping in view the above needs the department of civil engineering, MY University is offering MS degree program in the above fields.

Admission Requirements

  • B.Sc./BS/BE/B-Tech. in Civil Engineering or equivalent.
  • Minimum 50% marks or 2.00 CGPA on the scale of 4.00 in qualifying degree
  • Admission test
  • The applications of the applicants with the Bachelor’s degree other than Civil Engineering will be reviewed by Civil Engineering Graduate Admission Committee. The committee will decide eligibility and number of deficit undergraduate courses. The students will be required to attend a so called “zero semester” to compensate the deficiencies. The obtained Credit Hours (Cr. Hrs.) in zero semester will neither be considered in MS degree nor will be claimable for any other purpose or certificate etc.

Degree Requirements

There are two options (Subject to approval by committee) available for completion of MS degree:

Option 1: Thesis

  • 24 Credit Hours course work (8 courses of 3 Cr. Hrs. each, which include 5-major/core courses and 3-minor courses)
  • 06 Credit Hours Thesis
  • Total 30 Credits

Option 2: Non-Thesis

  • 30 Credit Hours course work (10 courses of 3 Cr. Hrs. each, which include 7-major/core courses and 3-minor courses)

Duration and frequency

  • The Minimum duration to complete the degree is 2 years with 4 regular semesters.
  • In case of option 1 the final semester will be dedicated to Thesis
  • Maximum of 3 courses per semester
  • The Maximum duration to complete the degree is 4 years from the date of admission

The programs will be offered every year in Fall semester. Admission process will commence in June. Details will be provided at www.myu.edu.pk.
