Civil Engineering is one of the oldest branch of Engineering.
It includes the study of transportation, land topography,
geology, water, soil, sanitation systems & their planning,
designing construction and operation in a complex context
of social, economic, and environmental condition. It is all
about development of country and improvement of human life.
The Department of Civil Engineering offers a 4 year B.Tech.
degree course in Civil Engineering. The first batch of students
for this course was admitted in the academic year 2008-2009.
This course in Civil Engineering provides students the knowledge
of science and art related to civil engineering along with
exposure to management and social sciences. The objective
of Civil Engineering program is to prepare graduates to become
leaders in solving social problems in the areas of resource
extraction, efficient infrastructure and urban planning,
public comfort and safety and force majeure mitigation.
The department is well set to provide excellent civil engineering
graduates. Not only a high standard of knowledge is given
but also administrative, management and software skills are
inculcated in the young graduates. Academic activities also
emphasizes on all-round development of students.
The department has a highly qualified faculty with excellent
academic record from IITs and other renowned institutes in
India. There is a proportionate mix of academic excellence
and industrial experience amongst the faculty, which is instrumental
in imparting the right blend of theoretical and practical
knowledge to the students.
