The Programme of Studies, which leads to the acquisition of a Degree in Civil and Environmental Engineering (CEE), requires the completion of 240 ECTS credits (30 credits per semester). The Degree is awarded when the student has successfully completed all the Compulsory (195 credits), three Electives (15 credits) and six Restricted Electives courses (30 credits).The courses CEE 113, CEE 232, CEE 233, CEE 272 and CEE 253 are laboratory courses where students are divided into groups and have classes once every two weeks.
The vast majority of newly admitted undergraduate students enter the University of Cyprus following Pancyprian Examinations organised by the Ministry of Education and Culture for admission into establishments of higher education.
Please see the Rules of Undergraduate Study.
The Programme is based on the European System of Credit Transfer and Accumulation (ECTS). The degree is awarded after the successful completion of studies in the programme / direction determined by the Department. It is also required to succeed at least 240 ECTS.

The final grade, i.e. Excellent with Distinction (9.5-10), Excellent (8.5-9.49), Very Good (6.5-8.49), Good (5.5-6.49) and Satisfactory (5-5.49), is calculated as the weighted average of all the courses that the student has successfully completed. The weighting is based on the hours of each course.
The graduates of the Programme can practice the profession of civil engineer. The Bachelor's Degree in Civil & Environmental Engineering is fully recognized by the Scientific and Technical Chamber of Cyprus (STCC), enabling the holder to become a member of STCC after one year of practical training in Cyprus in the private or public sectors and thus obtain the license to practice civil engineering. The graduates of the Programme can be employed in the design, construction and maintenance of civil engineering projects in the private sector, as well as in the public sector.
Graduates of the Programme may continue their studies at postgraduate level in the following fields: structural engineering, earthquake engineering, geotechnical engineering, environmental engineering, energy and sustainable development, petroleum engineering, construction management, transportation engineering, coastal engineering.
