Civil Engineering

Civil engineering is a professional engineering discipline that deals with the design, construction, and maintenance of the physical and naturally built environment, including public works such as roads, bridges, canals, dams, airports, sewerage systems, pipelines, structural components of buildings, and railways.

Course Overview

Civil engineering is the oldest and most respected discipline of all engineering fields. Civil engineering design, builds , and manage the infrastructure of civilization , which include building , bridges, highways water supply system, and other public works. These services are the cornerstone of the discipline ,although no longer the limiting scope.

The civil and environmental engineering program include structure mechanics , geotechnical engineering , earthquake engineering , hydrology and water resources engineering . Civil engineer play a vital role in man-made environmental and in protecting the natural environment, bringing together science and art to create much of the tangible fabric of today’s society.

They plan , design , construct, maintain, and manage airports , bridges, tunnels, building , harbor facilities , dams, highways, water ways, pipelines, sanitation systems, and other aspects of the build environments. “Civil Engineering is profession of designing and executing structural works that serves the general public , holding the safety, health and welfare of the public paramount”. Civil Engineering is a broad field of engineering dealing with the planning , design, construction , maintenance and management of physical infrastructure networks.

Departmental Infrastructure

The department was started in the academic year 2009-10 has its distinction of being the first department in this institute and has set- up a great tradition of producing eminent engineers who are competent and committed to the high professional standards in the field of engineering and technology. The under graduate course in civil Engineering was started in 2009 with the intake of 60 and now intake is increase up to 120. Since its inception, the department has grown into one of the largest and most widely respected civil engineering course and masters program in the country.

Program Outcomes: (POS)

The programe is targeted at developing the following competencies, skills and abilities amongst students. They shall be able to:

Engineering knowledge: Apply the knowledge of mathematics, science, engineering fundamentals, and an engineering specialization to the solution of complex engineering problems.
Problem analysis: Identify, formulate, review research literature, and analyze complex engineering problems reaching substantiated conclusions using first principles of mathematics, natural sciences, and engineering sciences
Design/development of solutions: Design solutions for complex engineering problems and design system components or processes that meet the specified needs with appropriate consideration for the public health and safety, and the cultural, societal, and environmental considerations.
Conduct investigations of complex problems: Use research-based knowledge and research methods including design of experiments, analysis and interpretation of data, and synthesis of the information to provide valid conclusions.
Modern tool usage: Create, select, and apply appropriate techniques, resources, and modern engineering and IT tools including prediction and modeling to complex engineering activities with an understanding of the limitations.
The engineer and society: Apply reasoning informed by the contextual knowledge to assess societal, health, safety, legal and cultural issues and the consequent responsibilities relevant to the professional engineering practice.
Environment and sustainability: Understand the impact of the professional engineering solutions in societal and environmental contexts, and demonstrate the knowledge of, and the need for sustainable development.
Ethics: Apply ethical principles and commit to professional ethics and responsibilities and norms of the engineering practice.
Individual and team work: Function effectively as an individual, and as a member or leader in diverse teams, and in multidisciplinary settings.
Communication: Communicate effectively on complex engineering activities with the engineering community and with society at large, such as being able to comprehend and write effective reports and design documentation, make effective presentations, and give and receive clear instructions.
Project management and finance: Demonstrate knowledge and understanding of the engineering and management principles and apply these to one’s own work, as a member and leader in a team, to manage projects and in multidisciplinary environments.
Life-long learning: Recognize the need for, and have the preparation and ability to engage in independent and life-long learning in the broadest context of technological change.
