Generative AI is transforming the way engineers learn, analyse information, automate tasks and solve difficult issues. In this course you will be introduced to these technologies from a civil engineering perspective and see where artificial intelligence can be applied in modern engineering workflows.

What You Will Learn

• Learn Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, and Generative AI

• Understand the basics of neural networks and deep learning

• Learn TensorFlow and PyTorch for AI applications

• Review AI applications in structural design and engineering

• Learn VAEs, GANs and autoregressive models

• Explore AI for urban planning, smart cities, construction and sustainability

• Discover AI model evaluation, limitations, and validation

• Explore AI ethics, bias, privacy, accountability and professional responsibility

• Explore what’s next with AI, BIM, GIS, digital twins and smart engineering workflows

You will connect AI ideas with civil engineering applications, including concrete strength prediction, foundation settlement, structural design, urban growth, resource management, infrastructure monitoring, and sustainability.

Most importantly, you will learn how to apply AI responsibly. AI is an engineering assistant, not a replacement for engineering judgement.

This course will help you build a strong foundation in AI and understand how these technologies can support your career, regardless of whether you are a civil engineering student, practicing engineer, researcher, consultant, or construction professional.

No need for an advanced AI background.
