Who is Eligible
All undergraduate students reading Bachelor of Engineering (Environmental Engineering).
Background
The Professional Engineers Board Singapore recognize graduates with the B.Eng. (Environmental Engineering) with specialisation in Civil Infrastructure to be eligible for registration as Professional Engineer (PE) in Civil Engineering.
This Professional Engineer qualification would be useful if you eventually decide to practise in the construction and built environment industry after you graduate.
Courses Required to Read
- CV2011 Structural Analysis I
- CV2014 Geotechnical Engineering
- CV3011 Reinforced Concrete Design
- CV3012 Steel Design
- CV3016 Construction Technology & Processes
These courses would equip our B.Eng. (Environmental Engineering) graduates with good knowledge in structural analysis and design as well as soil mechanics, in addition to the extensive knowledge in environmental engineering, hydraulic and hydrology.
You may read the above-mentioned courses as Core (if it is listed as core in your curriculum), Major PE or Elective.
Important: All these courses cannot be read during your overseas exchange or exercise Flexible Grading Option (FGO) even if you classify it as elective.
Award
Once you passed all the above mentioned 5 courses and be awarded with letter grades, you will be issued with a Certification Letter upon graduation, and this letter will be accepted by the Professional Engineers Board Singapore.
Registration

Who is Eligible
Undergraduate students reading Bachelor of Engineering (Civil Engineering) programme admitted to,
- Year 1 in Academic Year 2021-22
- Year 2 in Academic Year 2022-23
Background
All engineering structures are founded in soils and rocks. Geotechnical engineering is one of the core disciplines of Civil Engineering that studies the mechanical behaviour of soils and rocks, under loading as part of the design of excavation, foundation, underground tunnel, land reclamation and slope stability among other infrastructures. This specialised expertise in geotechnical engineering is in high demand in industry. This specialisation will better equip students to practice in the geotechnical sector upon graduation.
