CIVIL ENGINEERING




About the branch:

Civil Engineering is considered as the mother of all other engineering branches. In the beginning of modern engineering there were only two branches of engineering viz. Civil Engineering (Dealing with all civilian applications) and Military Engineering (Dealing with warfare). Due to advancement in engineering the specialization in specific areas lead to emergence of other branches. Currently the major areas dealt by Civil Engineering are designing, construction and maintenance of buildings, all structures related to road transportation, seaports & airports, marine structures, Railways, Environmental Engineering, Irrigation, Surveying, Project investigation and management of projects etc.

About the programme:

The three year diploma course aims at imparting skills in project planning and implementation, planning and designing of structures mentioned earlier, preparation of related drawings and estimation of quantities. One of the main objectives of the course is to groom the students as efficient and effective field supervisors and equip them in maintaining quality in construction. Various computer applications in Civil Engineering are also included as the part of the curriculum.
