What is Civil Engineering?

If you have a slightly creative mind and interested in Construction, Design and Planning, then Civil Engineering is the right choice for you. Civil Engineering has remained as an evergreen career opportunity provider. We Civil Engineers orchestrate the rise of marvellous concrete monuments and structures from mere sketches. We create tangible physical structures such as roads, dams, and even towering skyscrapers that dot the skyline of the 21st century modern cities. We address issues of sustainability by designing basic components of the built environment; energy, water supply and waste treatment. This discipline spans over five areas of specialization namely Structural Engineering, Geotechnical Engineering, Transportation Engineering, Hydraulics and Environmental Engineering.

Who should study Civil Engineering?

Civil Engineers are in great demand in various fields. Some of them are: cost effective construction which is gaining importance to reach a much wider spectrum of society, development of advanced building materials using Nano-technology to improve sustainability within the Green World, Remote Sensing and GIS that forms the backbone for natural resources management, intelligent transport systems that form our main communication links in urban India and disaster management that is mandatory in response to man-made and natural hazards. All these areas have their foundation in the Civil Engineering discipline, thus making it an evergreen branch for construction and research.
