The Department of Civil and Mineral Engineering at the University of Toronto focuses on research addressing societal needs, from underground resources to major structures. Students, staff, and professors engage in research ranging from nanoscale studies of water contamination and concrete properties to large-scale structural tests and urban transit modeling. This research is strengthened by collaborations with industry and government partners, utilizing world-class facilities and expertise. The department is structured around five interdisciplinary themes: Cities & Infrastructure; Complex Systems; Energy & Environment; Mining & Subsurface Systems; and Transformative Technologies. These themes encompass traditional civil engineering fields like Structural, Transportation, Environmental, Building Engineering, Construction Management, and Mining and Geomechanics.
