Research and Studies Center of Civil Engineering

Faculty of Engineering – Cairo university had established a special unit to conduct research and studies and provide technical consultancy in the field of civil engineering, supported by a huge number of outstanding scientific competencies with broad practical experiences, and by available potential laboratory equipment. RSCCE vision is to have a leading role in improving the level of planning, design and implementation of civil engineering projects at the local and international levels, and to be a standard for measuring the level of success, excellence and creativity in all fields of civil engineering. The Research and Studies Center of Civil Engineering (RSCCE) was established in 1993 as a special governmental unit according to the discipline # 24 dated 22/6/1993 of the president of supreme council of universities to serve in providing consultancy services in all major fields of civil engineering such as : Structural and Construction Engineering, Geo-technical Engineering, Transportation Engineering, Surveying, Water Resources Engineering, and Environmental Engineering. In case of Integrated Projects, RSCCE provides consultancies in Civil Engineering as well as other branches in Engineering such as Architectural Engineering and Electro-Mechanical Engineering.
