Department of Civil & Environmental Engineering

Shaping our buildings, and thereafter us
Civil Engineering aims at improving to civic life of man by harmonising the natural resources available on earth. Civil engineering deals with the construction, geotechnique, transportation & traffic water supply & sanitation, surveying and mapping and water resources. The construction engineer deals with the design and supervision of construction of bridges, buildings, tunnels and dams. Engineers specialized in geo technique are vital and relevant for conquest of areas ranging from Antarctica to the moon. Transportation engineering deals with the planning, design and construction of roads, streets and thoroughfares. Broadly a civil engineer is expected to do planning) research, design and construction of buildings and roads, traffic and transportation, irrigation/power, water supply and sewage disposal, dams and reservoirs, ports and harbours, airways and navigation, treatment for industrial wastes and abatement of air pollution and disaster mitigation. Besides the basic and engineering sciences, the curriculum in Civil Engineering covers various professional subjects e.g. Structures, foundation, construction, works management and cost transportation engineering, irrigation engineering, hydraulics, environmental engineering & earthquake technology etc. The Department of Civil Engineering was established in 1955. A B.E. degree course, national certificate and diploma courses were started with an intake of20 only. However, the department of civil engineering excelled in short time and first PG program in structure was started in 1966. Today, Department of Civil & Environmental Engineering caters for 100 UG students: 70 in civil engineering and 30 in environmental engineering. M.E. Degree level programs in Hydraulics and Flood Control, Structural Engineering and Environmental Engineering and PhD level Programs in selected areas of specialization are also carried out & For last 30 years. M.E. in Structural Environmental and Hydraulics and Flood Control Engineering has contributed significantly to the development in these areas.
