The B.Tech. in Civil Engineering prepares students to design, develop, and manage the infrastructure that supports modern society. The programme combines strong foundations in structural engineering, geotechnical engineering, fluid mechanics, transportation systems, environmental engineering, and construction management with emerging technologies that are transforming the built environment.
Students gain exposure to Building Information Modelling (BIM), Geographic Information Systems (GIS), infrastructure analytics, and sustainable engineering practices from the early stages of the programme. Through design-oriented learning, field studies, digital modelling, and interdisciplinary projects, graduates develop the skills required to address challenges in urbanization, infrastructure development, environmental sustainability, and resilient city planning.
Eligibility Criteria
- Minimum of 65% in Mathematics, Physics, and Chemistry (individually).
- At least 60% aggregate in PUC/12th or an equivalent examination from a recognized board.
- Valid score in JEE, KCET, COMEDK or any other state entrance exam.
