About the Department
The department of Civil Engineering, started in the year 2011, is known for its state-of-the-art laboratories. There are many instruments in each laboratory which can be utilized for the research purpose. This is one of the ways to ensure students’ attainment of technical knowledge beyond the usual syllabus & curriculum.
The department has 17 faculty members. Six of them are Ph. D. holders. Eight are pursuing Ph. D.; two from IITB, Mumbai. Dr. Rajendra Magar, dean, School of Engineering & Technology obtained his Ph. D. in water resources domain from IITB, Mumbai in 2011; he received the best thesis award from the then Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh. His research work is being implemented at Koyna dam in Maharstara.
The department has an intake of 60 for undergraduate course & 18 for the postgraduate course in Construction Engineering & Management. The PG course was started in 2015. The research centre started in 2017 is a cherry on the cake. Nodal centre for ISRO-Indian Institute of Remote Sensing, Dehradun under which faculty members & students undergo various certificate courses. Indian Green Building Council (IGBC) student chapter conducts different activities for the students.
Project laboratory houses sufficient numbers of computers. There are various civil engineering softwares for the students to have hand-on-practice. Many alumni are working abroad in the leading firms in USA, Australia, Canada, Dubai, Qatar, UK, etc. Many are working in companies like Reliance, L & T, Structwel, Carbon Craft, HCC, etc. across the India.
