01 / Program Overview
About the Department
The Department of Civil Engineering trains engineers to plan, design, and build resilient, eco-friendly infrastructure. Combining classical structural and geotechnical engineering with modern digital surveying (Total Station/GIS) and structural simulation tools, the department actively engages in regional consultancy and material testing.
Department Vision
To develop Civil Engineers who design resilient, sustainable infrastructure with ethical and environmental responsibility.
Department Mission
- M1: Deliver strong fundamentals in structural, geotechnical, transportation, and environmental engineering.
- M2: Integrate modern CAD, BIM, STAAD.Pro, and GIS surveying technologies into practical training.
- M3: Promote green construction practices, civic consultancy, and rural infrastructure development.
