B.Tech. in Civil Engineering
On this page
Overview
B Tech programme in Civil Engineering is aimed at producing graduates with critical, analytical, and problem-solving skills, the ability to think independently and out of the box, to pursue a career in Civil Engineering or higher studies.
Until recently Civil Engineering teaching was limited to planning, analysis, design, and execution of different types of infrastructure like buildings, roads, bridges, dams, and power plants. However, increasing technological sophistication and demand for higher living standards fuelled by economic growth and concerns about environmental impact have changed the scope of the Civil Engineering curriculum. The challenges of today’s Civil Engineering infrastructure are much more complex including reducing carbon footprints, interdependencies between resources, and waste utilization.
Though the programme is designed for depth in Civil engineering the flexibility in the curriculum exposes the students to the trends in allied topics and also to modern skills like Artificial Intelligence and Machine learning applications in Civil Engineering.

Proctoral System
Under the Proctoral System, every student is assigned a faculty member as a Proctor or a mentor.
These mentors offer guidance, support and encouragement to students, helping them as they progress along their academic journey. From the choice of electives to their academic performance, from attendance to meeting their credit requirements, students can approach these mentors with any and every query.
Proctors also interact with parents/guardians and keep them updated on the progress of students.
To ensure that they reap the benefits of the Proctoral System, students are advised to be in regular contact with their Proctors.
A Semester Abroad
We offer a program in which students can register a semester in the final year with a partner university, where students can do an internship or a project.
Innovation Centre
At the Innovation Centre, students team up with faculty members to bring their innovative ideas to life.
Ideas are assessed based on their relevance to — and impact on — society. These are then translated into working projects that are entered in national and international competitions, and for registration as patents.
Open Electives
Students can choose from a multitude of open electives across faculties for credits. These are specially designed courses that offer a basic introduction to holistic development.
- Uses application-based learning.
- Offers research opportunities.
- Offers internship, training, and placement support with universities and industries worldwide.

Teaching and Assessment
During each semester, students’ performance is assessed through Continuous Evaluation (CE) and a Semester End Examination (SEE). CE and SEE weightages carry equal weightage.
Students are awarded grades based on the marks scored.
Students can do a group project or internship in a partner university during their vacation after the 6th semester with prior approval from the department head and faculty dean.
