Civil engineering deals with the design, construction, and maintenance of physical infrastructure projects. It is traditionally broken into several sub-disciplines and involves cooperation across disciplines to complete large-scale projects. Allied courses to civil engineering include architecture, electrical, geodetic, mechanical, and sanitary engineering as well as management engineering. These courses relate to planning, designing, constructing, and managing built structures and systems.

CE-5B What is Civil Engineering and its allied courses?
Civil engineering is a professional engineering discipline that deals with the design, construction, and maintenance of the physical and naturally built environment, including works like roads, bridges, canals, dams, and buildings. Civil engineering is the oldest engineering discipline after military engineering, and it was defined to distinguish non-military engineering from military engineering. It is traditionally broken into several sub-disciplines including environmental engineering, geotechnical engineering, geophysics, geodesy, control engineering, structural engineering, transportation engineering, earth science, atmospheric sciences, forensic engineering, municipal or urban engineering, water resources engineering, materials engineering, offshore engineering, quantity surveying, coastal engineering, surveying, and construction engineering. Civil Engineering works are generally one-of-a-kind projects; they are often grand in scale; and they usually require cooperation among professionals of many different disciplines. The completion of a civil engineering project involves the solution of technical problems in which information from numerous sources and myriad non-technical factors play a significant role. Civil engineering takes place on all levels: in the public sector from municipal through to national governments, and in the private sector from individual homeowners through to international companies. Allied Courses of Civil Engineering:
Architecture-has to do with planning and designing form, space and ambience to reflect functional, technical, social, environmental, and aesthetic considerations. Mechanical Engineering-is the discipline that applies the principles of engineering, physics, and materials science for the design, analysis, manufacturing, and maintenance of mechanical systems. Electrical Engineering- is a field of engineering that generally deals with the study and application of electricity, electronics, and electromagnetism. Sanitary Engineering - a branch of civil engineering dealing with matters affecting public health, as water supply or sewage disposal. Geodetic Engineering- encompasses a group of spatial data technologies and theory that involve one or more areas of research using photogrammetry, image understanding, mapping/geographic information science, satellite geodesy, remote sensing, real time mapping, and image processing. Management Engineering-a field that concentrates on the application of engineering principles for the effective planning and efficient operations of managing, manufacturing or industrial operations.
ANGELO, Eden M. CE-5B Civil Engineering and its allied courses. Civil engineering is concerned with the overall interface of human created fixed projects with the greater world. General civil engineers work closely with surveyors and specialized civil engineers to design grading, drainage, pavement, water supply, sewer service, dams, electric and communications supply. General civil engineering is also referred to as site engineering, a branch of civil engineering that primarily focuses on converting a tract of land from one usage to another. Site engineers spend time visiting project sites, meeting with stakeholders, and preparing construction plans. Civil engineers apply the principles of geotechnical engineering, structural engineering, environmental engineering, transportation engineering and construction engineering to residential, commercial, and industrial and public works projects of all sizes and levels of construction. Civil engineering is the application of physical and scientific principles for solving the problems of society, and its history is intricately linked to advances in understanding of physics and mathematics throughout history. Because civil engineering is a wide-ranging profession, including several specialized sub-disciplines, its history is linked to knowledge of structures, materials science, geography, geology, soils, hydrology, environment, mechanics and other fields.
Allied Courses:
1. Architecture- is both the process and the product of planning, designing,
and constructing buildings and other physical structures. 2. Electrical Engineering- It is the branch of engineering that deals with the technology of electricity. 3. Geodetic Engineering- is a professional and organized act of gathering physical data on the surface of the earth with the use of precision instruments. 4. Mechanical Engineering- the branch of engineering dealing with the design, construction, and use of machines. 5. Sanitary Engineering- is the application of engineering methods to improve sanitation of human communities, primarily by providing the removal and disposal of human waste, and in addition to the supply of safe potable water. 6. Management Engineering - enhances the knowledge and skills of engineering graduates in technology and management perspectives of solving problems, making company decisions and management of complex systems.
