About the Department

The Department of Civil Engineering was established in the year 2012 and has grown into a full-fledged department with specializations in all the major areas of Civil Engineering. The department has a team of sincere, dedicated, competent and experienced faculty with commitment to serve the college in achieving its goals. The Department is striving to foster a strong partnership with the industry to ensure relevancy in curricula and prepare our graduates for the market challenges of today and beyond. Most of our alumni hold senior positions in industries as well as in academic institutions, both in India and abroad. The high quality research work being pursued by the faculty and students is very evident from the large number of research papers being published in referred journals. In recognition of expertise and commitment in development of the department in developing new technologies, project proposals are being sent for the funded projects. As part of the academic plan, the department conducts International conferences, National conferences, Faculty Development Programs, Guest lectures, Seminars, Inplant training, Industrial visit and Internship training for student’s development, organised with industrial partnerships. Students of the department are highly enthusiastic and actively participate in various co-curricular and extracurricular activities apart from giving their best in academics. Furthermore, final year students are encouraged to undertake industry –based projects to address some of the problems and challenges faced by the local industries.
