Overview

Civil Engineering Department has been established in the year 2002 with an intake of 60 students. In the year 2012 intake has been increased from 60 to 120 students. In the year 2015 M.Tech in Structural Engineering has been introduced with an intake of 24 students and has been grown into full fledged, well equiped with specialization in all major areas of Civil Engineering. Faculty have contributed significantly to overall growth of the department and received funds from AICTE-Modrob, KSCST and Engineering related societies. It has produced VTU rank students and supported students to bag awards in national level fests and sport events.

Vision:
