Civil Engineering
Civil Engineering (CIV) research unit strives for intelligent, sustainable, resilient, and resource-efficient built environment.
CIV's research focuses on the possibilities of existing and emerging technologies, systemic understanding, and human-centered solutions over the life-cycle of structures and built environment. The foci of research are realised through active industry and stakeholder collaboration in national and international research projects. CIV pursues societal impact, academic recognition and invests in academic talent.

CIV pursues societal impact, academic recognition and invests in academic talent.
Our research targets core CIV areas of technology, human-centricity, and systems.
Cross-cutting themes of research are:
- technology: automation, digitalisation, AI
- human-centricity: health, sustainability
- systems: construction machines, transport systems, built environment, design systems
The Civil Engineering research unit can be found on the third floor of the Linnanmaa campus, rooms TF301-309 and PR301-303, to which the most direct route is through the main doors 2T and stairway T1. Staff e-mail addresses are typically in the firstname.lastname@oulu.fi format. The phone numbers of the staff can be found in the university's phone book.
