CIVIL ENGINEERING

ABOUT

The Department of Civil Engineering was established in the year 2009 with a vision to impart high-quality education, promote research, and nurture professional expertise in civil engineering. The department offers a comprehensive range of programs, including B.E./B.Tech in Civil Engineering, M.E./M.Tech in Structural Engineering and Construction Management, and a robust Ph.D. program that fosters innovation and advanced research.

The department is strengthened by 8 highly qualified faculty members, all holding Ph.D. degrees from reputed institutions. These faculty members bring extensive expertise across a diverse range of specializations, including Structural Engineering, Geotechnical Engineering, Transportation Engineering, Environmental Engineering, and Hydrology and Water Resources Engineering. Their collective experience and knowledge cater to the evolving demands of the industry and society.

The faculty members actively contribute to the field of civil engineering as Fellows and members of prominent professional bodies such as the Indian Concrete Institute (ICI), Indian Geotechnical Society (IGS), Institute of Remote Sensing, Institution of Engineers (India) (IEI), and Indian Society of Technical Education (ISTE). Their association with these professional bodies spans key areas like Concrete Technology, Soil Mechanics, Water Resource Management, and Remote Sensing Applications.

To stay abreast of cutting-edge technologies and advancements in their respective fields, faculty members regularly attend training programs, workshops, and conferences at premier institutions, including IITs, IISc, NITs, and other Central and State Government academic and research organizations. These professional development initiatives enable the faculty to integrate contemporary practices and knowledge into teaching, fostering an engaging and dynamic learning environment for students.

The Civil Engineering Department is dedicated to addressing societal and infrastructural needs through innovation, sustainability, and resilience. It focuses on the conceptualization, design, construction, and maintenance of infrastructure projects while preparing students to become future-ready engineers, researchers, and leaders. The curriculum is designed to provide students with a strong foundation in engineering principles, while also instilling in them the skills needed to contribute to sustainable development and solve contemporary societal challenges.

With a commitment to academic excellence, professional growth, and societal impact, the department strives to create an environment that fosters innovation, leadership, and a sense of responsibility among its students, ensuring they are well-equipped to shape the future of infrastructure and technology.
