| Research Activities : |
|
Research activities imparts momentum to the growth and is the hall mark of any academic department. With the limited facilities available for such activity in the department, its faculties are carrying out research in some frontier areas of Civil Engg. as listed below :
|
Earthquake resistant design and construction practices.
Advanced Structural materials.
|
|
Fluid Structure interaction. |
|
Waste utilisation in construction. |
|
Pavement Materials. |
|
Structural Dynamics. |
|
Geotechnical applications of flyash. |
|
Stabilisation of expansive soils. |
|
Air Pollution. |
A good number of papers in the above area are being presented and published at national and international conferences as well as in reputed national and international journals.

| Scope of Civil Engineering |
|
Civil Engineering, the oldest and the parent branch of the Engineering is as old as human Civilization that concerns itself with construction and maintenance of public utilities like buildings, roads, bridges, water supply system etc. Rapid industrialisation and urbanisation has given birth to challenging construction of skyscrapers, flyovers, long span bridges, atomic power plants, gigantic industrial complexes etc. to mention a few. To accomplish such feats optimally, design and construction management has taken roots in Civil Engineering. With continued technological advancements, the scope of the Civil Engineering has further broadened and diversified into new areas such as Computer Aided Design, Computer Aided Drafting, Offshore Technology, Earthquake Engineering, Robotic Construction, Space Structures etc.
A Student graduating in Civil Engineering can opt for employment in state and central government departments, defence services, public and private sector undertaking and privately owned consulting firms and construction firms. He may also become an entrepreneur. The interested graduates may prosecute higher studies in conventional or specialised fields and may join R & D organisations or choose teaching as a profession.
The department has highly qualified faculties. Besides being imparted by textual knowledge, students are accompanied by faculty members to nearby construction sites and industrial organisations for acquainting them with field practices and visual appreciation.
The AICTE has approved 2 years regular P.G. programme in Structural Engumeering and 2½ years part time P.G. Course in Environmental Science and Engineering as a Continuing Education Programme for regular as well for the engineers employed in the nearby organisation. The introduction of few .P.G. courses would further enhance the academic excellence in the department.
