Introducing the Department of Civil Engineering

We bring together traditional and innovative expertise—in structural engineering, geotechnical engineering, transportation and water engineering, as well as environmental and infrastructure planning. We conduct research to find solutions for the future: climate-resilient infrastructure, resource-efficient construction, and digital planning methods. These topics also shape our teaching, which combines classical fundamentals with expertise in sustainable resource use, climate adaptation, the mobility transition, ecological construction practices, and the digital transformation of construction.

The South Westphalia region offers a vibrant environment for this, characterized by tradition, innovation, and strong partnerships. Students benefit from personalized support and international connections in both research and professional practice. We invite you to join us in actively shaping the built environment—as students, doctoral candidates, project partners, or professionals.
