The Department of Civil Engineering was constituted in 1958. The Department has already trained more than 1200 graduates. Today, a great number of graduates are engaged in different research projects. Civil engineers play a major role in shaping our environment. Their activities vary widely and include the engineering design and analysis of the project and its management through all stages of construction.
Students attend lectures and carry out laboratory work.
Laboratory experiments are designed to illustrate the concepts introduced in the lectures. The drawing office work involves the design of projects such as concrete bridges, earth dams and road networks. There have been over 200 research projects carried out so far.
