Major introduction, characteristics and off-campus training:
The civil engineering major was founded in 1932. It has a long history of running schools and a good historical heritage. It is one of the first general undergraduate majors in colleges and universities in Guangxi and the best major in Guangxi. The advantageous and characteristic majors in colleges and universities have passed the professional evaluation and certification of the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development four times. In 2017, civil engineering became the only discipline in Guangxi that was selected into the list of "world-class disciplines" of the Ministry of Education. This major has a strong faculty, including 10 national talents, such as 1 academician of Chinese Academy of Engineering, winner of National Outstanding Youth Fund, a Chang Jiang Scholar and other distinguished professors . It has the national key discipline of "structural engineering", the state key laboratory of life safety of characteristic metal materials and composite structures jointly built by the province and ministry, the key laboratory of engineering disaster prevention and structural safety of the Ministry of Education, the Guangxi key laboratory of disaster prevention and mitigation and engineering safety, the Guangxi key technology engineering research center of long-span arch bridge, the Guangxi special geological highway safety engineering technology research center, the "211 project" national key construction discipline of structural engineering and water resources development in Hongshui River Basin, and the provincial innovation team-Guangxi engineering disaster prevention and structural safety talents. Professional experiments. The total area of the room is more than 29,000 square meters, and the total value of instruments and equipment is about 200 million yuan. The Civil Engineering architectural engineering Experimental Teaching Demonstration Center is a national experimental teaching demonstration center. The civil engineering major passed the civil engineering major assessment (certification) of colleges and universities of the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development four consecutive times in 2006, 2011, 2016, and 2022. In 2019, it was selected as a national first-class undergraduate major construction site, and passed the engineering education certification in 2022. The advantages and characteristics of this major are that it relies on the high-level discipline platform, takes the National Experimental Teaching Demonstration Center of Civil Engineering architectural engineering as the experimental innovation base, takes the high-level teaching staff as the guide, takes the quality and graduation requirements of international professional evaluation and certification as the standard, strengthens professional basic knowledge education, strengthens innovative experimental teaching, and teaches professional knowledge in modules, so as to cultivate civil engineering technical talents with international vision and future facing. Off-campus training mainly adopts cognitive practice, production practice, graduation practice and other off-campus practice forms, combined with off-campus elite lectures and other forms.
