About this program
Civil Engineering
To preserve the Gediminas Hill, to implement the strangest architecture projects, to build a bridge across the widest and most rapidly flowing river are only a few examples of dreams of those, who want to change the world. If you dream to change the world, you can do it this way, as any new building already changes the world's face.
People have always dreamed of their own accommodation: ancient people found shelter in caves, their progeny built houses from branches, and built bridges across rivers.
The advancement of technologies has changed the understanding of construction works, and the conviction that a house needs only walls and a roof has become obsolete. Today, civil engineering is a prestigious profession that unites specialists of various fields, who are knowledgeable of methods to construct a solid, high and complex building, are able to design bridges, tunnels and roads, water supply and cleaning systems.
Civil engineers are able to independently built a solid wall, as they know what is needed for the wall's longevity. A good specialist examines every inch of any building and is able to explain any structural element's function.
Modern civil engineers implement the craziest projects - build almost one kilometer skyscrapers or dozen-storey underground structures, carry out construction works in the open sea on artificial islands, plan and build bridges. Impressive buildings also demonstrate the country's economic power.
