Civil Engineering
OVERVIEW
Civil engineering is the oldest branch of engineering which is growing right from the stone age of civilization. American society of civil engineering defines civil engineering as the profession in which a knowledge of the mathematical and physical sciences gained by study, experience and practice is applied with judgment to develop ways to utilize economically the materials and forces of nature for the progressive well being of man.
VISION
Traditionally Civil Engineering has played an important role in improving the civic life of society by harmonizing the natural resources available on earth. Some of the major areas in the field of Civil Engineering are design and construction of various structures like bridges, buildings, roads, tunnels and dams, developing new construction technologies, Design and development of Foundation systems, Geotechnical Engineering, Transportation and Traffic Engineering, Municipal and Sanitary services, surveying, GIS and remote sensing, and Hydraulics and Water Resources Engineering.
The Department offers a three-year course leading to the Diploma in Civil Engineering, four-year course leading to the B.Tech in Civil Engineering and two-year courses leading to Masters Degree in Water Resources Engineering. The Department is known for its reputed faculty having expertise in diverse fields. It has built up a wide research potential. The laboratories are equipped with advanced equipment and provide all the facilities for advanced research in the field of civil engineering.
MISSION
The Department of Civil Engineering puts in its best efforts to create outstanding engineers“ with advanced teaching techniques and learning aids for students and state of the art research facilities for our students. Students are not only made experts in technical aspects but also in interpersonal skills, a vital ingredient to excel in the fast-paced world.
The department has some important instruments in various laboratories such as; Total Station, GPS instrument, Auto Level, Direct Shear Test Apparatus, Compression Testing Machine, CBR Testing Machine, Bitumen Extractor etc. The department is also equipped with various computer software used in civil engineering such as AUTOCAD, Staad PRO etc. and students are trained in these software.
