    This study is concerned with investigating the students’ needs of English language of the second year BMD of civil engineering at MouloudMammeri University of TiziOuzou. It aims at identifying the learners’ needs for civil engineering as it consists in investigating whetheror not the program fits the needs of learners of civil engineering. This study is conducted under the theoretical framework of Hutchinson and Waters(1987) for needs analysis. The investigation is based on the mixed methods research where open and closeended questions are asked for both students and teachers. The main instruments that are used for collecting data are the questionnaire for the second year BMD students of civil engineering and an interview with their teachers of English language. In fact, the study combines both the quantitative and the qualitative methods. It uses the statistical method to elicit statistical data, then, adopts Qualitative Content Analysis for the interpretation and the explanation of the results. The research demonstrates that civil engineering learners have a lack in speaking skill for that reason they want to improve their speaking ability through teacher help. The results reveal that the program does not fit the learners needs according to the view of the learners; whereas, the teachers argue that the program fits the learners’ needs.
